Gulf Gear EP is a high-performance gear lubricant designed to provide effective lubrication in a wide range of automotive transmissions and axle drives where API GL-4 quality oils are specified. It is formulated from high-quality base stocks and balanced extreme pressure additives to protect gear components against wear and scoring. It offers protection against oxidation degradation and rust & corrosion. It meets API GL-4 and US MIL-L-2105 specifications for automotive gear oils.
Features & Benefits
- Good Extreme Pressure and anti-wear properties protect against wear and scoring
- High oxidation stability minimizes sludge and deposit formation facilitating longer gear and bearing life
- Effective rust and corrosion protection reduces wear and extends component life
- Better low-temperature fluidity (SAE 80W-90 and 85W-140) reduces wear and provides easy start-up at low ambient temperatures
- Good anti-foam properties ensure film strength for effective lubrication
- Excellent seal compatibility helps minimize leakages and reduce chances of contamination
Applications
- Manual transmissions and trans-axles requiring oils meeting GL-4
- On-road passenger cars, light and heavy-duty trucks, buses, and vans
- Off-highway equipment in construction, mining, and agriculture
- Other applications involving spiral bevel gears operating under moderate to severe speeds and loads and axles with hypoid gears operating under mild to moderate speeds and loads
- Not recommended for automatic transmissions
