Shell Naturelle HF-E is latest biodegradable flame-retardant hydraulic fluid of the HFDU type, designed for hydraulic systems and hydrostatic transmissions. It is completely biodegradable and has low ecotoxicity, which is why it is especially suitable for use in ecologically protected areas, as well as in industrial equipment operating in places of increased fire hazard, for example, at coal mines, metallurgical and foundries. A blend of fully synthetic esters and ashless additives provides Shell Naturelle HF-E with an excellent balance of lubricity and environmental compatibility.
