Provides superior lubrication, protection, and fuel economy in racing and
commercial applications
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes are race-proven extreme pressure lubricant
engineered to meet the severe high-load and high-temperature demands of contemporary race
and commercial vehicle differentials and gear-lube equipped transmissions. They provide
the superior friction, heat and load control demanded by race drivers, the superior fuel
economy required by commercial vehicle operators and the superior performance sought by
all motorists.
Friction Reduction and Fuel Economy
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes offer exceptionally low coefficients of
friction for superior power transfer, heat control and fuel economy.
High Load and Extreme Pressure Performance
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes promote long life for gears, including those
subject to high loads and severe service. The superior film strength of their synthetic
basestocks ensures protection from wear for gears operating with full-film lubrication.
Top-quality extreme pressure agents ensure protection from wear for gears operating
without full-film lubrication.
High Temperature Performance
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes offer the thermal stability and durability,
oxidation resistance and shear stability required for optimal protection in the hot
environments in which race and commercial vehicle gears operate. Thermal stability and
oxidation resistance keep gears and seals clean by inhibiting the heat-induced formation
of sludge and deposits. Thermal durability protects gears from physical damage by
preventing heat-induced failure of anti-wear chemistry. Shear stability helps prevent
metal-to-metal contact and wear in high-temperature operations.
Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes are ideally suited for low temperature
applications (see graph). Their low temperature fluidity ensures excellent low temperature
performance, protection and fuel economy.
Seal Compatibility and Rust and Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes form a barrier on gear surfaces that seals out
water to inhibit rust and corrosion. Foam inhibitors ensure protection in conditions that
favor lubricant foaming and consequent metal-to-metal contact and wear.
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes have been shown to help seals perform better
and last longer.

AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes provide limited slip performance. Although
generally not necessary, original equipment manufacturers' limited slip additives may be
used in conjunction with AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes.
Note: most vehicle manufacturers recommend driving a vehicle in tight figure
"8" patterns eight to ten times after changing limited slip lubricants.
NEW VEHICLES UNDER WARRANTY
The use of AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes will not void new vehicle
warranties. AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes meet the performance criteria shown in
"Applications" (above) and may be used in equipment requiring fluids that meet
any or all the specifications shown.
INSTALLATION
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes are fully compatible with other fluids used in
geared applications. To install AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes, drain the fluid
in the system and install the AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lube of your choice.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes last longer than conventional petroleum gear
lubes do. In non-commercial passenger vehicles operated under normal conditions, AMSOIL
Series 2000 Synthetic Gear Lubes do not have to be drained. In cases of severe water or
dirt contamination, a chemical lube analysis can determine if the gear lube is still
serviceable.
In commercial vehicles operated under normal conditions, AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic
Gear Lubes may be used up to five times longer than petroleum gear lubes may be used.
AMSOIL PRODUCT WARRANTY
AMSOIL INC. warrants that the use of its products will not cause mechanical damage to
any mechanically sound equipment when AMSOIL INC. products are used in full compliance
with AMSOIL INC. recommendations. |
