Gear Oil GL-5 products are designed for use in automotive hypoid drive axles, steering systems, non-synchronized transmissions and transaxles which require a fluid with API GL-5 performance.
The friction characteristics of Gear Oil GL-5 products make them generally unsuitable for use in synchronized manual transmissions and transaxles, and they should not be used in these applications unless a GL-5 fluid is specifically recommended.
- Proven additive system offers reliable EP protection to critical components against scuffing and wear
- Low temperature fluidity promotes rapid oil circulation during cold start-up, helping protect system components
- Robust shear stability helps ensure viscosity is maintained throughout oil service life
