PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are specifically designed for heavy-duty powershift transmissions.
Formulated for extended drain intervals, AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids contain top-quality synthetic basestocks and
a high level of top-quality additives selected specifically for
powershift transmission performance. They offer unmatched transmission
friction performance, smooth brake operation, reduced gear and
bearing wear and increased equipment life. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids extend time between overhauls.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
meet the following specifications:
- Caterpillar TO-4
- Allison C-4
- HD Torque and Drivetrain
- Eaton Fuller CD-30 (SAE 30)
- Eaton Fuller CD-50 (SAE 50)
AMSOIL Synthetic SAE 50 Powershift Transmission
Fluid exceeds Fuller CD-50 performance specification and is ideal
for use in Fuller, Rockwell, Spicer, Fabco, Warner and other large
truck manual transmissions.
Friction Characteristics
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are compatible with common metallic and nonmetallic friction materials.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids' stable frictional
characteristics eliminate the problems of excessive brake noise
and vibration, clutch slippage, friction surface deposits and
design material degradation.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are formulated for fast, smooth clutch engagements and wet brake
operations; excellent power transmission through clutches and
synchronizers; and superior hydraulic fluid performance for servo
equipped units.
Wear Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
exceed the wear requirements of the Caterpillar TO-4 specification.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids are formulated
without viscosity index improvers for superior shear stability.
They maintain grade throughout service life, due to their superior
shear stability, providing long-term protection against equipment
wear, even when equipment is frequently subjected to sustained
periods of applied pressure or high horsepower and high torque.
High and Low Temperature Performance
In high temperatures, AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids dependably protect components from wear. Their
superior oxidative and thermal stability inhibits the formation
of varnish, deposits and sludge so equipment runs clean. AMSOIL
Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids are excellent heat transfer
fluids and may help hot-running equipment operate up to 50° F
cooler and keep them running in their optimal temperature range.
In low temperatures, AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids flow readily for dependable startup and post-startup protection.
Copper Corrosion, Rust and Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
protect equipment from copper corrosion and rust, even during
equipment storage. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
do not foam in service, protecting equipment from the metal-to-metal
contact and wear that occurs with use of foam-filled fluids.

NEW EQUIPMENT UNDER WARRANTY
The use of AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids will not void new equipment warranties. New equipment warranties
are based on the use of fluids meeting specified performance criteria
and viscosity grades. AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids meet the performance criteria shown in "Performance
Data" and may be used in equipment requiring fluids that
meet any or all the specifications shown.
INSTALLATION
AMSQIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are fully compatible with other fluids used in powershift applications.
To install AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids, drain
the fluid in the system, replace the filter (if so equipped) and
install the appropriate AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluid.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
provide two to five times the service life of conventional petroleum
fluids if AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids are
kept free of dirt and moisture.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
may be used for 250,000 miles or five years (whichever comes first)
in manual transmissions.
PRODUCT WARRANTY
AMSOIL INC. warrants that the use of its lubricants
will not cause mechanical damage to mechanically sound equipment
when AMSOIL INC. products are used in full compliance with AMSOIL
recommendations.
