Gulf Syngear VF 75W-80
Supreme Performance Heavy Duty Automotive Gearbox Oil
Gulf Syngear VF, SAE 75W-80 is fully synthetic supreme performance manual transmission lubricant specially developed for heavy duty Volvo transmissions used in on-road commercial vehicles and off-highway equipment operating in most severe conditions. It is blended from synthetic base fluids and advanced technology additive system to provide enhanced gear shiftability, extended service life and excellent protection against component wear & oil seal deterioration. It possesses outstanding load-carrying capability and high viscosity index to provide reliable lubrication in applications encountering high-speed/shock load and low-speed/high torque conditions and wide temperature ranges. Gulf Syngear VF SAE 75W-80 meets the most stringent requirements of Volvo STD 1273,07 for extended drain intervals.
Features & Benefits
- Meets the performance requirements of synchromesh transmissions which includes synchromesh compatibility, thermal stability and shift feel
- Unique additive technology provides outstanding load bearing characteristics resulting in longer gear and bearing life and hence reduced maintenance costs and enhanced equipment durability
- Exceptional thermo-oxidative stability helps in minimizing high temperature deposit formation and extending the oil life – significantly longer than conventional gear oils
- Effective rust and corrosion protection, especially to copper and its alloys reduces wear, extends synchroniser and bearing life and improves shifting performance
- Outstanding low temperature fluidity reduces wear at start-up and helps in smoother shifting at low ambient temperatures
- Superior frictional properties provide improved fuel economy
- Excellent seal compatibility helps minimise leakages and reduce chances of contamination
Applications
- Volvo manufactured manual Transmissions (approved against Volvo Transmission Oil Specification 97307) operating in ambient temperatures less than -25ºC
- Voith Retarders in Trucks and Buses for against Oil Class C – specified for longest oil drain intervals
- Manual Transmission of Heavy Duty On-highway and Off-highway vehicles requiring such quality oils
