Why do Transmissions fail? Why is most energy lost due to the fluid in the differential?
Good questions and all can be addressed based on the quality of the fluids used. Cold weather performance, Oxidation resistance, sheer resistance, load carrying capacity and anti-wear properties are constantly addressed by AMSOIL’s research team. Be amazed by improved drivetrain performance in all types of vehicles!
Every day we receive calls from our customers regarding how AMSOIL improved shifting, longer fluid life, amazing impressions among peers and even extending the life of tired and problematic auto transmissions. Amsoil’s drivetrain products are indeed amazing as you will soon see for yourself!
“AMSOIL Automatic Transmission Fluid will reduce the transmission failure rate in fleet applications generally by 80%.” (100% per recent Lubes & Greases article regarding the Portland Longshoreman fleet.)
AMSOIL’s drive train synthetic products significantly lower temperatures, generally last three to ten times longer, cost less, allow for better energy transfer (automatic transmission fluids), and reduce wear under load.
Unlike 95% of the other brands, AMSOIL contains the very best seal conditioner and for limited slip applications our Severe Gear line contain all the additive needed. (Slip-lock additive is available separately for customers who wish to add to their in house gear lubricants for a fraction of the cost of OEMs.)
For Marine applications Rust protection is not inherent w/ lubrication! Anti-Corrosion additives actually work against wear protection and AMSOIL is the first to solve this problem to this degree.

AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic Extreme Pressure (EP)
The SEVERE GEAR easy-pack eliminates the hassles of changing gear lube.
Lubricants are premium grade lubricants specifically engineered for maximum performance in severe duty applications. These state-of-the-art AMSOIL formulations feature an exclusive blend of high viscosity, shear stable synthetic base oils and an extra treatment of high-performance additives. AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic EP Lubricants maintain their viscosity for long-lasting protection against metal-to-metal contact. Instant performance in freezing temperatures. The proprietary AMSOIL additives form an iron-sulfide barrier coating on gear surfaces, providing the ultimate line of defense against wear, pitting and scoring. Normally, this product has a 100,000 mile interval. AMSOIL Severe Gear lubricants prevent “thermal runaway” – a phenomenon caused by a lubricant’s inability to control friction and increased heat under high-stress conditions. By preventing thermal runaway, AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic EP Lubricants inhibit rapid lubricant degradation and component damage. Equipment runs better and lasts longer with AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic EP Lubricants. Product Codes:
In order to ensure continued viscosity protection in high-shear conditions, it is required that SAE 75W-140 automotive gear lubes stay in grade throughout
the CEC L-45-A-99 (KRL) 20-Hour Shear Test. AMSOIL recently subjected
Severe Gear 75W-140 Synthetic Gear Lube (SVO) and four competing 75W-140 gear lubes to KRL shear stability testing. SAE J306 standards dictate SAE 140 gear lubes maintain a minimum 24.0 cSt viscosity. Although each of the test oils met this standard before testing began, each competitor failed to stay in grade following the test. In fact, two experienced viscosity losses so dramatic that they dropped well below SAE 140 requirements and all the way down to an SAE 85 viscosity. AMSOIL Severe Gear, on the other hand, easily retained its viscosity within SAE J306 requirements, indicating its superior ability to protect against thermal runaway by maintaining its protection qualities in severe, high shear operating conditions.
AMSOIL Long Life Synthetic
75W-90 & 75W140 Gear Lub
Specifically Engineered for 500,000-Mile Service Life in Over-The-Road Trucks.
Texas customer testimonial using this product in a Mazda 6: I’m only buying a years worth this time for economic reasons. Also, the Amsoil gear lube works way better in cold weather than the factory fill. The factory stuff was so poor, that I had to double-clutch on upshifts to keep from grinding until the box warmed up.
