75w140 gear oil 5 gallon

Q: What does SAE 75W

SAE 75W140 meaning The value before the W (W=winter suitability) indicates the flowability of the oil at cold temperatures. Transmission oils with 75W remain flowable up to -40°C. The number 140 refers to the kinematic viscosity of the transmission oil at 100 °C. This has a range of 24.0 and 32.4 mm²/s.

Description

Sinopec GL-5 Synthetic Heavy Duty Automotive Gear Oil is a high-performance gear oil, formulated with high-quality synthetic base oil and an advanced multifunctional additive system to meet the requirements of API GL-5. Designed for the lubrication of hypoid gear sets in passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles, where they offer excellent extreme pressure (EP) and anti-wear properties.

Features & Benefits

Sinopec GL-5 75W140 Synthetic EP Gear Lube 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 the construction, agricultural, forestry and mining sectors.
Differentials, gear boxes and steering gears, where a hypoid oil is required.
Some industrial gear sets, where an extreme pressure (EP) gear oil is required.

Features & Benefits

Excellent extreme pressure and anti-wear performance protects gears operating at high speeds and tooth pressures from abrasion, wear and welding, even in severe high-load and shock-loading conditions, extending component life.
Excellent thermal and oxidation stability minimize the build up of deposits and varnish, reducing wear, extending component life and ensuring longer oil life.
Protection against corrosion and rusting extends equipment life, and reduces maintenance costs.
Good low-temperature fluidity ensures optimum lubrication, even in cold start-up conditions, and prevents start-up wear.
Good anti-foaming properties ensure optimum oil film thickness, protecting components against wear, and minimize oil leakage.
Available in five viscosity grades to meet the specific needs of the application.
Multi-grade oils can be used over a wider temperature range, and so can reduce the need for seasonal oil change thus reducing maintenance costs.
Fully compatible with common seal materials, to extend seal life and prevent fluid leakage.

What is 75W

SAE 75W-140, API GL-5 is typically used as service fill rear axle oil for many passenger cars and trucks with high loads or very high horsepower. The higher viscosity base stocks help protect gears by maintaining the oil film in addition to the extreme pressure agents used to reduce metal to metal wear.

Which gear oil is better 75w90 or 75W140?

If you live in a cold area, you should consider using 75W-90, but if you live in a hot area, you should use 75W-140. The other thing to consider is whether you are going to be performing heavy-duty tasks. If that is the case, you should lean towards using 75W-140.

Is 75W140 synthetic?

75W140 Full Synthetic Gear Oil VPS 75W-140 Gear Oil is a superior sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure gear lubricant formulated with synthetic base stocks and additives to provide excellent performance.

What does SAE 75W

SAE 75W140 meaning The value before the "W" (W=winter suitability) indicates the flowability of the oil at cold temperatures. Transmission oils with 75W remain flowable up to -40°C. The number "140" refers to the kinematic viscosity of the transmission oil at 100 °C. This has a range of 24.0 and 32.4 mm²/s.
