FeaturesChevron Tegra Synthetic Gear Lubricants are superior quality, multipurpose gear lubricants.
It is manufactured from synthesized hydrocarbon base fluids which have exceptional thermal and oxidation stability, a high natural viscosity index, and a very low pour point. The most advanced additive system has been selected to provide superior load carrying, antiwear and antifrictional properties required for
satisfactory performance in automotive gear transmissions and differentials.
These products possess extreme shear stability even under heavily loaded conditions in hypoid and other automotive gears.
The low pour point and low-temperature performance of Chevron Tegra Synthetic Gear Lubricants impart improved lubrication during startup at subzero temperatures, while their superior viscositytemperature characteristics provide dependable lubrication at high temperatures.
Lower frictional losses in the lubricant film and reduced churning losses, due to lower bulk oil viscosity, reduce operating temperatures when compared to conventional gear lubricants. The lower frictional losses and reduced churning losses have also demonstrated significant fuel savings.
They have passed double length durability tests and are recognized as Mack GO G/S, GO-H/S, and GO-J products. Tests have established their usable life at more than 2.5 times longer than the usable life of conventional gear lubricants. That means fewer changes and less lubricant required per unit.
They function excellently over extremely wide
temperature ranges, thus providing better protection at extended drain intervals.
Applications
Chevron Tegra Synthetic Gear Lubricants are recommended as rear axle, transmission, and differential lubricants in over-the-road and off-road vehicles when operating in extremely cold environments.
Chevron Tegra Synthetic Gear Lubricants:
- meet the requirements of API Service Categories GL-4 and GL-5 and Mack GO-G/S, GO-H/S, GO-J.
- are engineered to meet the performance requirements of SAE J 2360 (formerly known as MIL-PRF-2105E).
- meet the requirements (discontinued in 1998) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants as H2 lubricants with no food contact.
