Abstract

Traction drive fluids comprise a saturated polycyclic hydrocarbon compound obtained by hydrogenating a trimeric compound of a cyclopentadiene-based condensed hydrocarbon compound resulting from the Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene and then isomerizing the resulting compound so as to have a pour point of -10.degree. C. or below. The traction drive fluids can be used not only in driving force transmitting mechanisms but also in hydraulic pressure controlling mechanism and friction properties controlling mechanisms of wet clutches.
