Universal Gear Lubricant

Universal Gear Lubricant is a multipurpose, extreme-pressure, API GL-5 automotive gear lubricant specifically designed for use in passenger car and truck axles with hypoid gear sets. It is formulated to provide long service life and extended gear life in automotive differentials operating under varying conditions of speed, load, temperature and torque. The carefully balanced formulation is designed to minimize oxidative sludge and varnish formation, reduce wear, prevent scoring damage, and protect against metal fatigue and spalling damage under shock-load conditions.

Applications

Universal Gear Lubricant is recommended for service fills of:

•Conventional differentials
•Top-off of limited-slip differentials in passenger cars and trucks
•Differentials
•Final drives and transfer cases in some off-highway equipment
•Non-synchronized manual transmissions in trucks, buses and heavy equipment where the manufacturer specifies an API GL-5 or MT-1 gear oil

Features

•Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability to minimize sludge and varnish formation
•Excellent thermal durability for extended gear life at elevated temperatures and under extreme-pressure conditions
•High load-carrying capacity for protection against scuffing and wear
•Protects against rust and corrosion
•Good foam resistance
