We have a basic viscosity chart on our web-site. Link in upper-right corner of this page.


This is VERY basic, and just used as a ball-park figures. We always test any products that are going to be close to design limitations or if the system has exact performance requirements.

I also have had good luck finding MSDS sheets or material properties for specific products with google searches.
