Pentosin is a German technical-fluid brand best known for its "first fill" OE supply to European and Asian automakers — its CHF 11S hydraulic fluid is a near-default in BMW, Volvo, and Land Rover power-steering systems, and its DOT 4 LV and Super DOT 4 brake fluids meet a long list of OEM specs for Audi/VW, BMW/Mini, GM, and Saab. The brand is a trade name of Fuchs Schmierstoffe GmbH and has been distributed in North America by CRP Industries (Cranbury, NJ) since 1983.
Pentosin's positioning is import-vehicle service. The product range covers brake fluid, hydraulic fluid, motor oil, transmission/DCT fluid, and antifreeze, all formulated to OEM approval matrices rather than to the lowest-common-denominator commodity spec. SDSs are published by CRP Industries through crpautomotive.com.
