What's the difference between ISO and HEC oil?

[BIG WOOD]

My blower requires ISO100 oil. I had about half a quart and it wasn't enough for both the front and rear. I have some HEC100, but am hesitant to use it. What's the difference, and will it hurt my blower if I use it. Just tell me to quit being a tightwad and order another quart of what my manual says, lol

SAE stands for the Society of Automotive Engineers. It classifies motor oils according to certain viscosities and very general temperature ranges at which they can be used. The acronym appears on the back bottle labels above the UPC (universal product code).


HEC is used as a viscosifier in brines and saline fracturing fluids, workover fluids, completion fluids and drill-in fluids.
