Start from the equipment manual, not the shelf
Every industrial machine defines its lubricant needs precisely: an ISO VG viscosity class and a performance standard (such as DIN or ISO categories for hydraulic oils). Substituting 'something similar' is the most common cause of premature pump and bearing wear in plants.
The basics that prevent most failures
For plant-level product mapping across MANNOL's industrial range, contact MANNOL Bangladesh's technical support with your equipment list and OEM requirements.
- Match the ISO VG class exactly — VG 32, 46 and 68 are not interchangeable by mood.
- Match the performance category the OEM specifies, verified on the product data sheet.
- Keep lubricants clean: contamination causes more hydraulic failures than oil quality.
- Label dispensing equipment per product to prevent cross-contamination.
- Record oil changes and top-ups per machine.
