Aerospace

The world of aviation encompasses a wide range of lubricant applications, including airframe assemblies, landing gear systems, shock struts, avionics, and propulsion systems. These applications demand the highest level of lubricant quality and performance, to meet and exceed rigorous safety and reliability requirements. Castrol Brayco/Braycote range of aviation specialty products cover a wide array of applications such as corrosion preventives, greases, hydraulic fluids and calibration fluids.

Brayco products have been delivering high performance in critical environments over the last 85 years - for example, the synthetic lubricants are utilized on nearly all military aircraft hydraulic systems, and Castrol supplies lubricants to the Space Shuttle program. Castrol is proud to bring this reputation for high performance to the commercial aviation and aerospace industry.
