2. Sinopec GL-5 Heavy Duty Automotive Gear Oil Product

Sinopec GL-5 Heavy Duty Automotive Gear Oil is a high-performance gear oil series, available in six viscosity grades, formulated from high-quality mineral base oils and an advanced multifunctional additive system to meet the requirements of the API GL-5 standard. It is designed to lubricate hypoid gear sets in passenger cars and commercial vehicles, where it provides superior anti-wear properties and extreme pressure (EP) load-carrying capability.

Applications:

Sinopec GL-5 Heavy Duty Automotive Gear Oil is suitable for use in:

• Axles, final drives, and power take-off units in trucks, buses, and off-highway vehicles used in various industries, including construction, agriculture, forestry, and mining sectors.
• Differentials, gearboxes, and steering gears requiring hypoid oils.
• Certain industrial gear sets requiring extreme pressure (EP) gear oils.

Features and Benefits

• Excellent anti-wear and extreme pressure performance protects gears operating at high speed and high pressure from wear and scuffing, even under high load and shock conditions, extending component life.
• Excellent thermal and oxidation stability minimizes the build-up of sludge and varnish, reducing wear, extending component life, and ensuring longer oil life.
• Corrosion and rust protection extends equipment life and reduces maintenance costs. Good low-temperature fluidity ensures optimal lubrication, even during cold starts, and prevents wear upon startup.
• Good anti-foaming properties ensure optimal oil film thickness, protecting components against wear and minimizing oil leakage.
• Available in six viscosity grades to meet specific application needs.
• Multigrade oils can be used over a wider temperature range and can therefore reduce the need for seasonal oil changes, thereby reducing maintenance costs.
• Fully compatible with conventional seal materials, helping to extend seal life and prevent fluid leakage.
