Synthetic GL-5 75W-90 Heavy Duty Automotive Gear Oil is suitable for use in:
- Drive axles (front or rear) of heavy duty vehicles.
- Some transmission gears, especially hypoid gears, in heavy duty vehicles.
- Axles and transmission systems that require a GL-5 quality oil.
Features & Benefits
- The very high viscosity index, provided by the fully synthetic formulation, ensures excellent low- and high-temperature performance, and reduces gear wear at low-temperature start up.
- Advanced sulfur phosphorus extreme pressure (EP) additive technology provides outstanding load-carrying capacity,and protects axles and gears operating under severe service conditions (e.g. low speed, high torque and high speed,high load).
- Excellent thermal and oxidation stability protect against the formation of deposits and sludge, prolong oil service life and extend oil drain intervals.
- The low coefficient of friction and high lubricity, provided by the synthetic base oil, reduce resistance at start up and during operation, lowering power consumption and operating costs.
- Good anti-foaming properties ensure optimum oil film thickness, protecting components against wear, and minimize oil leakage.
- Good oil film thickness protects against gear wear, scoring and pitting, and also prevents corrosion or spalling of gear surfaces.
- Available in five viscosity grades to meet the specific needs of the application.
- Fully compatible with common seal materials, to extend seal life and prevent fluid leakage.
- Good resistance against rust and corrosion extends component life.
- The 75W-90 multigrade can be used year round, without the need for seasonal change, and so can reduce oil inventory costs.
