PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 80W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube
is a multi-functional product designed to surpass the
requirements of equipment and automotive applications
calling for an SAE 80W-90 viscosity grade. Formulated
with wax-free synthetic base oils and high quality
additives, AMSOIL 80W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube resists
thermal breakdown. Its naturally high viscosity index
and shear stable construction improves film strength and
viscosity retention. AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear Lube
prevents wear, resists heat, and protects gears. It
lasts longer in service than conventional gear oils and
increases equipment life.
AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear Lube
provides:
- High Load Gear and Bearing
Protection
- Longer Oil and Equipment Life
- Lower Maintenance Costs
- Compatibility With
Conventional and Synthetic Gear Lubes
- Multi-functional for Multiple
Applications
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90
Synthetic Gear Lube is recommended for use under various
combinations of high-speed, shock loads, low speeds and
high torque conditions. It is recommended for use in all
light and heavy-duty, automotive, commercial or
industrial applications requiring SAE 80W-90 EP gear
lube. AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear Lube replaces all
conventional 80W-90 gear oils and exceeds the
lubrication and performance requirements of front and
rear differentials, transfer cases, transaxles, manual
transmissions, oil lubricated wheel bearings, and
steering gear boxes that require any of the following
specifications:
- API GL-5 & MT-1
- MIL-PRF-2105E
- Dana SHAES 234 (Formerly Eaton
PS-037) for 250,000 miles
- MACK GO-J
- Arvin/Meritor 0-76D plus hypoid
gear oil specifications from all domestic and
foreign manufacturers such as GM, Ford and Daimler
Chrysler.
- Can also be used rear axles where
API Service GL-4 lubricant is recommended.

or the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to
establish the application, NORMAL or SEVERE.

Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or
hours) for synthetic oil up to 250,000
miles. Otherwise, drain at twice the OEM
interval for conventional oil. |
Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or
hours) for synthetic oil. Otherwise, drain
at twice the OEM interval for conventional
oil. |
For product service
life in non-differential applications, consult
owner’s manual or the OEM for either normal or
severe synthetic oil service intervals. Where
service intervals are unavailable, drain at twice
the interval for conventional oil.
Note: AMSOIL does not
support extended drain intervals where water
contamination occurs. Check and service the gear oil
frequently when water contamination is possible.
Gear oils should be
changed more frequently when operating vehicles or
equipment in dusty or dirty conditions unless the
gear system is properly sealed and equipped with
membrane type breathers.
AMSOIL SYNTHETIC
80W-90 GEAR LUBE is compatible with synthetic
and conventional gear oils, however mixing oils
reduces the benefits and nullifies the extended
service life recommendations.
AMSOIL 80W-90
SYNTHETIC GEAR LUBE is compatible with most
limited slip differentials. If limited slip
differential chatter occurs, add AMSOIL Slip-Lock™
friction modifier additive.
AMSOIL has optimized gear
lube performance for specific operating
conditions. However, AMSOIL gear lubes are
multi-functional and may be used in many
different applications. This chart conveys
the best AMSOIL recommendation based on
product design and operating environment.
First row
product recommendations offer superior
performance in the respective applications.
Second row product recommendations offer
excellent performance in the respective
applications. The third row is exclusive to
SAE 80W-90 viscosity.
AMSOIL Severe
Gear® 75W-90 (SVG), 75W-110 (SVT) and
75W-140 (SVO) synthetic gear lubes have a
performance emphasis on the extreme pressure
and high heat of today’s vehicle
differentials.
AMSOIL Long
Life 75W-90 (FGR) and 80W-140 (FGO)
synthetic gear lubes have a performance
emphasis on 500,000 mile extended drain
intervals associated with larger sumps and
lower operating temperatures of
over-the-road truck differentials.
AMSOIL 75W-90
synthetic gear lubes will outperform
conventional 80W-90 gear oils in all
applications and may be used as a
replacement.AMSOIL offers 80W-90 (AGL)
synthetic gear lube for those customers
requiring this specific viscosity grade.
