PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 80W-90 Synthetic Gear
Lube is a multi-functional product designed to
surpass the requirements of equipment and automotive
applications calling for an SAE 80W-90 viscosity
grade. Formulated with wax-free synthetic base oils
and high quality additives, AMSOIL 80W-90 Synthetic
Gear Lube resists thermal breakdown. Its naturally
high viscosity index and shear stable construction
improves film strength and viscosity retention.
AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear Lube prevents wear,
resists heat, and protects gears. It lasts longer in
service than conventional gear oils and increases
equipment life.
AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear
Lube provides:
-
High Load Gear
and Bearing Protection
-
Longer Oil and
Equipment Life
-
Lower
Maintenance Costs
-
Compatibility
With Conventional and Synthetic Gear Lubes
-
Multi-functional for Multiple Applications
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90
Synthetic Gear Lube is recommended for use under
various combinations of high-speed, shock loads, low
speeds and high torque conditions. It is recommended
for use in all light and heavy-duty, automotive,
commercial or industrial applications requiring SAE
80W-90 EP gear lube. AMSOIL Synthetic 80W-90 Gear
Lube replaces all conventional 80W-90 gear oils and
exceeds the lubrication and performance requirements
of front and rear differentials, transfer cases,
transaxles, manual transmissions, oil lubricated
wheel bearings, and steering gear boxes that require
any of the following specifications:
-
API GL-5 & MT-1
-
MIL-PRF-2105E
-
Dana SHAES 234 (Formerly Eaton
PS-037) for 250,000 miles
-
MACK GO-J
-
Arvin/Meritor 0-76D plus hypoid
gear oil specifications from all domestic and
foreign manufacturers such as GM, Ford and
Daimler Chrysler.
-
Can also be used rear axles
where API Service GL-4 lubricant is recommended.

Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or
hours) for synthetic oil up to 250,000
miles. Otherwise, drain at twice the OEM
interval for conventional oil. |
Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or
hours) for synthetic oil. Otherwise,
drain at twice the OEM interval for
conventional oil. |
For product
service life in non-differential applications,
consult owner’s manual or the OEM for either
normal or severe synthetic oil service
intervals. Where service intervals are
unavailable, drain at twice the interval for
conventional oil.
Note: AMSOIL does
not support extended drain intervals where water
contamination occurs. Check and service the gear
oil frequently when water contamination is
possible.
Gear oils should
be changed more frequently when operating
vehicles or equipment in dusty or dirty
conditions unless the gear system is properly
sealed and equipped with membrane type
breathers.
AMSOIL
SYNTHETIC 80W-90 GEAR LUBE is compatible
with synthetic and conventional gear oils,
however mixing oils reduces the benefits and
nullifies the extended service life
recommendations.
AMSOIL 80W-90
SYNTHETIC GEAR LUBE is compatible with most
limited slip differentials. If limited slip
differential chatter occurs, add AMSOIL
Slip-Lock™ friction modifier additive.

AMSOIL has optimized gear
lube performance for specific operating
conditions. However, AMSOIL gear lubes
are multi-functional and may be used in
many different applications. This chart
conveys the best AMSOIL recommendation
based on product design and operating
environment.
First row
product recommendations offer superior
performance in the respective
applications. Second row product
recommendations offer excellent
performance in the respective
applications. The third row is exclusive
to SAE 80W-90 viscosity.
AMSOIL
Severe Gear® 75W-90 (SVG), 75W-110 (SVT)
and 75W-140 (SVO) synthetic gear lubes
have a performance emphasis on the
extreme pressure and high heat of
today’s vehicle differentials.
AMSOIL
Long Life 75W-90 (FGR) and 80W-140 (FGO)
synthetic gear lubes have a performance
emphasis on 500,000 mile extended drain
intervals associated with larger sumps
and lower operating temperatures of
over-the-road truck differentials.
AMSOIL
75W-90 synthetic gear lubes will
outperform conventional 80W-90 gear oils
in all applications and may be used as a
replacement.AMSOIL offers 80W-90 (AGL)
synthetic gear lube for those customers
requiring this specific viscosity grade.
