AMSOIL Synthetic Severe Gear Lube Reference Table
AMSOIL Synthetic Severe Gear Lube
In recent years, the auto industry has increased engine torque and horsepower, while at the same time improving body aerodynamics and increasing cubic feet of interior space, causing less undercarriage space for air-cooling around the differential. Higher horsepower, towing and hauling capabilities of modern vehicles make turbo diesel pick-ups, SUVs, vans and delivery/utility vehicles especially prone to severe service. Differential size and oil capacity has not increased,
causing a more severe environment than in
past years.
AMSOIL Synthetic Severe Gear SAE 75W-90, 75W-100, and 75W-140 gear lubes are designed for differentials used in severe service conditions and should be used for automobiles, vans, light duty trucks, turbo-diesel trucks, and SUVs . These gear lubes may also be used for class 8 heavy-duty trucks since these oils were designed to prevent thermal runaway with additional extra EP agent added to the product. AMSOIL Synthetic Long Life SAE 75W-90 and 80W-140 gear lubes are designed for up to 500,000-mile oil drains in class 8 heavy-duty trucks. These gear lubes may also be used for light duty trucks, turbo-diesel trucks, SUVs, vans, and automobiles for oil drains of up to 100,000-miles.

towing, hauling, steep hill driving, commercial use,
plowing, racing, off-road use, rapid acceleration,
frequent stop-and-go operation and high ambient
temperatures.
Higher horsepower, towing and hauling capabilities
of modern vehicles make turbo diesel
pick-ups, SUVs, vans and delivery/utility vehicles
especially prone to severe service. Other severe duty
vehicles include light, medium and heavy-duty
trucks, busses, heavy equipment, 4X4s, tow trucks,
race cars, tractors, and motorhomes.
