What is 140W gear oil?

Hypoid Gear Oil (GL5) SAE 140W is a high-performance, high-pressure gear oil manufactured from carefully selected base oils and multifunctional extreme pressure additives. This hypoid gear oil is suitable for axle drives – especially for heavy-duty hypoid transmissions.

What is the GL rating on gear oil?

The base grade of a gear oil shows its underlying properties and is determined by a GL number: GL-1 to GL-3 – Basic and outdated oils for manual transmissions and axles that lack particular additives to cope with extreme pressures, friction and heat.

What is 75W-90 used for?

Product Description. Mobil Synthetic Gear Oil 75W-90 is a fully synthetic gear lubricant formulated from synthetic base oils and an advanced additive system.

Is Delvac synthetic oil?

Mobil Delvac™ Extreme 15W-40 is a synthetic, high-performance diesel engine oil that helps extend engine life while providing long drain capability for modern diesel engines operating in extreme conditions.

What do numbers mean on gear oil?

The number indicates a level of the oil viscosity at a particular temperature. The higher the grade number, the higher the oil viscosity. Viscosity of gear oils designated with a number only without the letter “W” (SAE 80, SAE 90, SAE 140 etc.)

Which is better 75W-90 or 80W-90?

Synthetic-based SAE 75W-90 gear oils also prevent oxidation and oil thickening that mineral oils are susceptible to, and thus have longer life versus SAE 80W-90. SAE 75W-90 maintains a more consistent thickness, or viscosity, across a wide temperature range.

Is Mobil Delvac full synthetic?
