AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR 100% Synthetic Extreme-Pressure (EP) Gear Lube is a premium-grade gear oil specifically engineered for maximum performance in severe-duty applications. It maintains its viscosity for long-lasting protection against metal-to-metal contact. The proprietary AMSOIL additives form an iron-sulfide barrier coating on gear surfaces, providing the ultimate line of defense against wear, pitting and scoring. AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR helps prevent thermal runaway a phenomenon caused by a lubricant's inability to control friction and increased heat under high-stress conditions. By controlling thermal runaway, AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR 100% Synthetic EP Gear Lube inhibits rapid lubricant degradation and component damage helping equipment run better and last longer.

Performance

AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR provides performance far beyond what is possible with conventional gear oil. Amsoil design the gear lubes to provide superior gear and bearing protection, better friction and heat reduction, increased efficiency and extended service life.

Temperature Extremes

SEVERE GEAR excels in hot and cold temperature extremes. By design, it resists breakdown from high heat, preventing acid and carbon/varnish formation. Its wax-free construction also improves cold-flow properties, improving fuel economy and cold-weather shifting.

Applications

AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR is excellent for severe applications, such as 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 pickups, SUVs, vans and delivery/utility vehicles especially prone to severe service. Other severe-duty vehicles include light-, medium- and heavy-duty trucks; buses; heavy equipment; 4X4s; tow trucks; race cars; tractors; and motor homes.
