PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids are specifically designed for heavy-duty powershift
transmissions. Formulated for extended drain intervals,
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids contain
top-quality synthetic basestocks and a high level
of top-quality additives selected specifically for
powershift transmission performance. They offer unmatched
transmission friction performance, smooth brake operation,
reduced gear and bearing wear and increased equipment
life. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
extend time between overhauls.
AMSOIL Synthetic SAE 50 Powershift
Transmission Fluid exceeds Fuller CD-50 performance
specification and is ideal for use in Fuller, Rockwell,
Spicer, Fabco, Warner and other large truck manual
transmissions.
Friction Characteristics
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids are compatible with common metallic and nonmetallic
friction materials. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids' stable frictional characteristics eliminate
the problems of excessive brake noise and vibration,
clutch slippage, friction surface deposits and design
material degradation.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids are formulated for fast, smooth clutch engagements
and wet brake operations; excellent power transmission
through clutches and synchronizers; and superior hydraulic
fluid performance for servo equipped units.
Wear Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids exceed the wear requirements of the Caterpillar
TO-4 specification. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids are formulated without viscosity index improvers
for superior shear stability. They maintain grade
throughout service life, due to their superior shear
stability, providing long-term protection against
equipment wear, even when equipment is frequently
subjected to sustained periods of applied pressure
or high horsepower and high torque.
High and Low Temperature Performance
In high temperatures, AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids dependably protect
components from wear. Their superior oxidative and
thermal stability inhibits the formation of varnish,
deposits and sludge so equipment runs clean. AMSOIL
Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids are excellent
heat transfer fluids and may help hot-running equipment
operate up to 50° F cooler and keep them running in
their optimal temperature range. In low temperatures,
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids flow
readily for dependable startup and post-startup protection.
Copper Corrosion, Rust and Foam
Inhibition
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids protect equipment from copper corrosion and
rust, even during equipment storage. AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids do not foam in service,
protecting equipment from the metal-to-metal contact
and wear that occurs with use of foam-filled fluids.
INSTALLATION
AMSQIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids are fully compatible with other fluids used
in powershift applications. To install AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids, drain the fluid in
the system, replace the filter (if so equipped) and
install the appropriate AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluid.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids provide two to five times the service life
of conventional petroleum fluids if AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids are kept free of dirt
and moisture.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids may be used for 250,000 miles or five years
(whichever comes first) in manual transmissions.
