SOLAR Premium Series Automatic Manual Gear Oils GL-5 API 80W90
Description
Solar Manual Gear Oil SAE 80W-90 GL-5 is a high-performance, multi-grade gear lubricant formulated with premium quality base oils and a balanced extreme pressure (EP) additive system. It is designed to meet the stringent performance requirements of API GL-5 for use in hypoid gears operating under severe load conditions. This oil ensures exceptional gear protection, thermal stability, and extended equipment life, even in high-load and high-speed applications.
Available API
80W90
Applications
- Suitable for use in hypoid axles, differentials, and final drives requiring API GL-5 performance.
- Ideal for manual transmissions and gearboxes in commercial trucks, buses, construction, and agricultural machinery.
- Suitable for off-highway and heavy-duty vehicles operating in severe conditions.
- Not suitable for synchronized transmissions requiring API GL-4 lubricants.
Features & Benefits
- Excellent EP Performance: Protects gears against wear, scoring, and pitting under heavy-duty shock loads.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: Maintains consistent viscosity for reliable performance in both low and high temperatures.
- Outstanding Oxidation & Thermal Stability: Reduces sludge, varnish, and deposit formation during prolonged use.
- Rust & Corrosion Resistance: Guards metal surfaces against rust and corrosion, even in the presence of moisture.
- Enhanced Seal Compatibility: Prevents leakage and maintains integrity of seals and gaskets.
Recommended For
- Hypoid gear differentials, transaxles, and final drive units in commercial, industrial, and agricultural vehicles.
- Gearboxes requiring API GL-5 SAE 80W-90 performance.
