API # GL-5, VISCOSITY # 85W140, PACK SIZE # 20L
STRIX Gear Oil 80W-90, 85W-140
STRIX High Performance Commercial Gear Oil
Product Description
STRIX 80W-90 & 85W-140 are extra high performance commercial gear lubricants formulated from select base oils and an advanced additive system. These lubricants are engineered for performance in heavy-duty commercial transmissions, axles, and final drives where extreme pressures and shock loading are expected. Good performance at low temperatures, and have demonstrated good rust protection resulting from water contamination and wet conditions. They are recommended by STRIX for applications where API GL-5 is required. STRIX Gear Oil GX 80W-90 & 85W-140.
Features and Benefits
Today's heavy equipment applications place higher performance demands on drive train lubricants. Higher speeds, higher torque, and heavier loads require improved formulations to maximize equipment life and optimize operating costs.
The key benefits include:
|
Features |
Advantages and Potential Benefits |
|
Good protection against low speed/high torque wear and against high sped scoring |
Increased load carrying capability and reduced operating costs |
|
Excellent rust, staining, and corrosion protection |
Reduced wear and longer component life |
|
Effective low temperature lubrication |
Reduced wear and ease of start-up |
|
Wide multipurpose capability |
Reduced number of gear lubricants to simplify inventory and minimize miss application |
|
Excellent thermal stability and resistance to high temperature oxidation |
Extended gear and bearing life due to minimal deposits and longer seal life |
|
Good resistance to foaming |
Maintains film strength for effective lubrication |
|
Compatible with typical automotive seals and gaskets |
Minimum leakage and reduced contamination |
Applications
Heavy-duty manual transmissions, axles, and final drives requiring API GL-5 performance on highway light and heavy-duty trucks, busses, vans, and cars
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
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
Not intended for transmissions for which engine oil or automatic transmission fluids are recommended
