Abstract: The Hydraulic Fluids and Seals Workshop was presented by the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory in order to disseminate information about military hydraulic fluid changes and developments. The main showcase of the workshop was the transition from MIL-H- 5606 to MIL-PRF-83282 and MIL-PRF-87257 operational hydraulic fluids. Other topics included future hydraulic system development, seal compatibility testing, the search for a barium corrosion inhibitor replacement in the preservative oils, MIL-PRF-6083 and MlL-PRF-46170 which could be used in the operational fluids negating the need for the preservative oils, biodegradable testing for the operational hydraulic fluids, the development of the non-flammable hydraulic fluid, MIL-H-531 19, the amount of water a hydraulic fluid can hold before causing ice in hydraulic fluid and pump testing of the operational hydraulic fluids to see if purifiers will degrade pump life.
