Synthetic Gear Oil
Designed to provide the highest degree of protection and greatest efficiency for your drivetrain. Red Line provides a complete line of drivetrain lubricants which are optimized for differential, transmission or transaxle use over a wide range of temperatures. Proper selection depends upon the manufacturers' requirements and whether the application is for passenger automotive, commercial or racing use. Red Line Gear Oils contain polyol ester basestocks to provide excellent lubrication even under extreme conditions of high-loading and high- temperatures--their natural lubricity provide excellent slipperiness which reduces the sliding friction in hypoid gears to reduce wear and temperatures. The synthetic basestocks have a natural multigrade property, so large amounts of unstable thickeners are not required to manufacture our gear oils, which means that Red Line Gear Oils will provide a stable viscosity for even extended periods of use. Red Line also manufactures gear oils which can be used in limited-slip differentials without the use of additional friction modifiers.

Superlight Gear Oil
A 70W/75W GL-5 gear oil with the viscosity of an ATF. This is used when temperatures are not high and when the maximum power output is required such as in qualifying laps. |

Lightweight Gear Oil
A friction-modified gear oil designed for use where 75W80 GL-5 gear oil is recommended (may be too slippery for some syncros). Used in many motorcycle applications as an alternative to Shockproof types. It has an excellent low-temperature flow which allows easier shifting when cold and good syncro compatability. May be used to obtain maximum power transfer in racing differentials which do not see high temperatures. This oil is popular in Hewland's popular formula cars and prototypes with Hewland sequentials, dog-type gearboxes and also with Hewland's LD 200 formula car box in Formula Fords. |

75W90 Gear Oil
Our most popular gear oil, 75W90 is the preferred product in nearly all car and light truck differentials, both conventional and limited-slip, as it contains friction modifier which is recommended for limited-slip units. Our 75W90 Gear Oil is common in racing differential applications and can be used in transmissions and tranaxles; however, other Red Line lubricants have better frictional properties for rapid synchronisation. Exceeds API GL-5. |

75W90 NS Gear Oil
This GL-5-type gear oil doesn't contain the friction modifiers for limited-slip hypoid differntials. This makes the transmission synchronisers come to equal speeds more quickly, allowing faster shifting and much easier low-temperature shifting. Can also be used in racing limited-slip differentials where weak spring design causes too much wheel spin. |

80W140 Gear Oil
Generally used in commercial trucks which will climb long, steep grades and some racing applications where power is not critical. Generally 0.5% less efficient that 75W90. Can also be used in differentials and transmissions where excessive noise is a problem and limited-slip differentials which vibrate excessively when turning a corner. Exceeds API GL-5. |
