Gear Oil GL-5
Multipurpose lubricants
Gear Oil GL-5 are recommended for use in spiral bevel and hypoid differentials, power dividers, and oil-lubricated steering axle wheel bearings at normal drain intervals.
Their multi-viscosity characteristics allow their use in equipment operating over a broad ambient temperature range. This means good cold flow properties and gear protection.
Gear Oil GL-5 meets the requirements of:
• API Service Categories GL-5 and GL
Gear Oil GL-5 delivers value through:
• Good gear life — Extreme pressure properties protect hypoid and other types of gears from scuffing and wear.
• Rust and corrosion protection — Effective inhibitor package protects against rusting or corrosion of gear and bearing surfaces.
• Good foam inhibition — Foaming minimized by use of foam inhibitor.
• Market general performance — Good thermal and oxidation stability allows for appropriate gear protection in general operations
• Seal Protection — Protects against oil seal deterioration
