StrutWipe
Skydrol™ pre-saturated Cleaning Wipes For Cleaning Industrial Hydraulic Components
StrutWipe is manufactured with a 100% recyclable/biodegradable cotton wipe with natural fibers to ensure entrapment of particles down to 5 microns.
The cotton wipe meets the specifications in AMS3819 and is pharmaceutical grade used in ISO Class 5 (Class 100) cleanroom, static free, and will not fray.
The cleaning lubricating fluid used is either MIL-PRF-5606 or MIL-PRF-83282. Each individual wipe is impulse heat-sealed in a tamper-proof, reusable, foil zip lock bag to protect personnel from hydraulic fluid.
What Can StrutWipe be used for?
StrutWipe is suitable for cleaning chrome pistons to ensure the integrity of the aircraft’s wiper seals.

Frequently Asked questions
StrutWipe is manufactured with the same hydraulic fluid that your landing gear struts are serviced with. Even though the two type of hydraulic fluid are interchangeable, please consult your maintenance manual under ATA chapter 12 (Servicing). As a general rule, commercial and private aircraft use MIL-PRF-5605. All other aircraft would use MIL-PFR-83282.
- The 4X4 size is perfect for small personal aircraft such as Cessna and Piper.
- The 6X6 provides enough fluid and cleaning area for complex three landing gear aircraft all the way up to B737 and A320.
- The 9X9 (81 square inches of cleaning area) is great for the large size aircraft such as B747 and A330.
A cool dark place.
No, StrutWipe is pre-saturated but only to its peak capacity. Each StrutWipe is manufactured with pharmaceutical grade equipment.
Each StrutWipe is warrantied for three years from the date of manufacturing stamped on the bottom of every package. For more information, please see our policies tab.
Strutwipe can be use on other types of components that uses MIL-PRF-5606 (SW-756) or MIL-PRF-83282 (SW-782) hydraulic fluid. Always consult the ATA chapter 12 (Serving) maintenance manual.
StrutWipe is specially designed to clean and lubricate chrome hydraulic pistons. Rags are not used to clean wind shields, MFDs, or
galleys so why would a rag be used? Rags are easily cross contaminated with phosphate ester, Skydrol or
HyJet that can destroy the O-rings in a landing gear strut.
