High quality replacement for applications specifying SAE 80W-90 conventional gear lube. Synthetic construction provides improved cold flow properties, high viscosity index and heat resistance. Contains an over treat of high quality additives, exceeding the minimum standards. Provides excellent wear protection and long equipment life.
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.

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.
