Delo TorqForce FD SAE 60 meets or exceeds the specification: 

• CATERPILLAR FD-1 
  

Delo TorqForce FD SAE 60 delivers value through: 

Maximizes equipment life in severe service — Advanced additive system minimizes wear in heavily loaded gears and bearings by forming a strong protective layer on metal surfaces under extreme service conditions. 

Prolongs oil life — Extremely high thermal and oxidation stability protects against viscosity increase and deposit formation. Drain interval of 6,000 hours is recommended (compare to typical 2,000 hours drain interval for Cat TO-4 fluids). 

Minimizes unscheduled maintenance — Effective rust and corrosion inhibitors protect final drive components. Good viscosity characteristics at low temperatures ensure rapid oil circulation on start-up, preventing premature component wear.

Excellent foam protection — Works to avoid fluid loss due to foaming. 

Long equipment life — Fluid film with special additives helps protect metal surfaces against pitting, scuffing and wear, even under severe operating conditions of high temperature and high load.
