Series 2000 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube
 
 

Series 2000 SAE 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube is a race-proven extreme pressure lubricant engineered to meet the severe high-load and high-temperature demands of contemporary race and commercial vehicle differentials and gear-lube equipped transmissions. It provides the superior friction, heat and load control demanded by race drivers, the superior fuel economy required by commercial vehicle operators and the superior performance sought by all motorists.

Friction Reduction and Fuel Economy

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube offers an exceptionally low coefficient of friction for superior power transfer, heat control and fuel economy.

In fact, independent testing shows class 8 vehicles with AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 75W-90 Gear Lube in the differentials obtained up to 4.83 percent more mpg than vehicles equipped with another popular gear lube.

High Load and Extreme Pressure Performance

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube promotes long life for gears, including those subject to high loads and severe service. The superior film strength of its synthetic basestock ensures protection from wear for gears operating with full-film lubrication. Top-quality extreme pressure agents ensure protection from wear for gears operating without full-film lubrication.

High Temperature Performance

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube offer the thermal stability and durability, oxidation resistance and shear stability required for optimal protection in the hot environments in which race and commercial vehicle gears operate. Thermal stability and oxidation resistance keep gears and seals clean by inhibiting the heat-induced formation of sludge and deposits. Thermal durability protects gears from physical damage by preventing heat-induced failure of anti-wear chemistry. Shear stability helps prevent metal-to-metal contact and wear in high-temperature operations.

Low Temperature Protection

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube is ideally suited for low temperature applications (see graph). Its low temperature fluidity ensures excellent low temperature performance, protection and fuel economy.

Seal Compatibility and Rust and Foam Inhibition

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube forms a barrier on gear surfaces that seals out water to inhibit rust and corrosion. Foam inhibitors ensure protection in conditions that favor lubricant foaming and consequent metal-to-metal contact and wear.

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube has been shown to help seals perform better and last longer.

APPLICATIONS

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube is Recommended for Applications Requiring the Following Specifications:

  • API MT-1, GL-2 THROUGH GL-5
  • MIL-PRF-2105E
  • MACK GO-J, GO-J PLUS
  • CHRYSLER MS-9070
  • GM 12346190
  • FORD M2C-201-A
  • ROCKWELL 0-76-E
  • EATON PS-037A, PS-109

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube provides limited slip performance. Although generally not necessary, original equipment manufacturers' limited slip additives may be used in conjunction with AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube.

NOTE: Most vehicle manufacturers recommend driving a vehicle in tight figure "8" patterns eight to ten times after changing limited slip lubricants.

INSTALLATION

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube is fully compatible with other fluids used in geared applications. To install AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube, drain the fluid in the system and install the AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube.

SERVICE LIFE

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube lasts longer than conventional petroleum gear lubes do. In non-commercial passenger vehicles operated under normal conditions, AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube does not have to be drained. In cases of severe water or dirt contamination, a chemical lube analysis can determine if the gear lube is still serviceable.

In commercial vehicles operated under normal conditions, AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube may be used up to five times longer than petroleum gear lubes may be used.
