While a manual transmission shifts gears
by the command of its operator, an automatic transmission
acts as an energy transfer media and shifts automatically
based on a variety of variables, including speed and load.
Making use of a hydraulic system, in addition to a network
of gears and bearings, the lubrication requirements for
an automatic transmission are slightly different than those
of a manual transmission, requiring a lubricant of different
characteristics. Because automatic transmissions are commonly
subjected to extensive idling, frequent stops, cold temperature
operation, sustained hot weather operation and trailer towing,
it is important that they are protected by a high quality
lubricant.
AMSOIL's transmission fluids provide automatic transmissions
with superior friction protection and performance over a
wider temperature range than conventional automatic transmission
fluids, avoiding breakdown and maintaining its viscosity
in temperature extremes.
Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid
Improves
fuel efficiency, reduces transmission temperatures and increases
transmission life. Provides unsurpassed thermal stability
and up to five times the service life of conventional ATFs.
Delivers
maximum protection for towing and other severe-duty applications. Product Code: ATF
A
fuel efficient automatic transmission fluid recommended
for GM, Ford and Toyota transmissions where lighter viscosity
oil is required. Provides the same excellent protection
and performance as AMSOIL ATF. Recommended for vehicles
requiring GM DEXRON® VI, Ford MERCON® LV and SP,
and Toyota WS fluid specifications. Product Code: ATL
New
AMSOIL Synthetic Synchromesh Transmission Fluid 5W-30 meets
and exceeds the gear, bearing, synchromesh and seal demands
found in automobiles and light trucks. It's specifically
designed for manual transmissions and transaxles with synchromesh
systems that require light viscosity, non-extreme pressure
fortified oil. Product Code: MTF
AMSOIL
Synthetic Manual Transmission and Transaxle Gear Lube is
designed to meet the special requirements of certain manual
transmissions and transaxles, such as the New Venture NV4500.
These transmissions are cast iron and have exhaust pipes
close to them, causing them to run hot. Product Code: MTG
Specially
formulated for high horsepower and high torque applications.
Delivers unmatched friction reduction and reduced wear so
clutch plates and transmissions last longer. Provides
maximum torque transfer and brake power while resisting
oxidation and thermal breakdown. Product Code: ART
Delivering
the ultimate in oxidation resistance, wear control and friction
performance, AMSOIL Torque-Drive extends lubricant life
up to six times and provides protection beyond that possible
from conventional ATF's. Product Code: ATD
