Delo Synthetic Transmission Fluid is a
heavy duty truck synthetic manual transmission fluid specially
formulated for extended drain and severe service.
It is manufactured from synthesized hydrocarbon base fluids which
have excellent thermal and oxidation stability, a high natural
viscosity index, and a low pour point. Since it is highly stable
when exposed to severe heat, it provides exceptional high
temperature lubrication for extended drain intervals.
Delo Synthetic Transmission Fluid's outstanding low temperature
flow properties and natural high viscosity index provides superior
all-climate, year-round performance in heavy duty truck
transmissions. Its use permits easier shifting in extremely cold
weather and less drag and gear wear during startup. When using Delo
Synthetic Transmission Fluid there is a potential for fuel economy
savings.
RECOMMENDED FOR
Delo Synthetic Transmission Fluid is recommended North American
type, heavy duty non-synchronised manual transmissions, such as
those manufactured by Eaton, ArvinMeritor & Mack. It is
specially suitable where operating conditions are severe or where
equipment must operate in extremely hot or cold climates.
This product is not recommended for use as an engine crankcase oil.
and is not suitable where extreme pressure gear lubricants are
specified.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
Minimizes operating costs
Rapid circulation and reduced drag on gears reduces gear wear, and
provides the potential for fuel economy benefits.
Reduces maintenance
Excellent thermal and oxidative stability reduces deposit formation
under severe operating conditions. This keeps gears and bearings
cleaner, preventing oil film disruption which can result in
increased wear rates. Effective anti-rust additives protect
transmission components. High oxidation stability provides extended
drain intervals.
Minimizes inventory costs
Naturally high viscosity index ensures effective lubrication over a
wide range of temperatures. This allows use in a variety of
applications, and eliminates any need for separate summer and
winter grade gear oils.
Reduces driver fatigue
Excellent low temperature fluidity allows easy engagement of gears
under cold start conditions.
