Application Method
Recommended by ExxonMobil for use in:
- Heavy-duty manual transmissions, axles, and final drives requiring API GL-5 and MT-1 level performance
- On-highway light and heavy-duty trucks, busses, vans, and cars
- Off-highway industries including: construction, mining, quarrying, and agriculture
- Other heavy-duty industrial and automotive applications involving hypoid and other gears operating under conditions where high speed/shock load, high speed/low torque, and/or low speed/high torque conditions prevail
- Initial fill, top-off, and refill of enclosed commercial gearing in manual or semiautomatic transmissions where gear lubricants are recommended including drive axles and final drives
- Not recommended for applications requiring API GL-4 Level performance
- Not intended for transmissions for which engine oil or automatic transmission fluids are recommended
Advantages:
- Extended gear and bearing life due to minimal deposits and longer seal life
- Increased load carrying capability and reduced operating costs
- Reduced wear and longer component life
- Reduced number of gear lubricants to simplify inventory and minimize misapplication
- Maintains film strength for effective lubrication
- Minimum leakage and reduced contamination
Features:
- Excellent thermal stability and resistance to high temperature oxidation
- Good protection against low speed/high torque wear and against high speed scoring
- Excellent rust, staining, and corrosion protection
- Effective low temperature lubrication
- Wide multipurpose capability
- Compatible with typical automotive seals and gaskets
- Good resistance to foaming
