Motul 3178CZ Gear 300 Racing Lubricant - 1 Liter
Category: motul 75w90
This lubricant is expertly formulated for racing vehicles, including those used in speedway, rally, and raid competitions. It caters to a variety of gearboxes, encompassing both mechanical transmissions and synchronized or non-synchronized systems, as well as gearboxes for differential applications, transfer gearboxes, and hypoid differentials that lack a limited slip mechanism. This lubricant is engineered to perform effectively under both high-stress scenarios—such as heavy loads at lower RPMs—and moderate loads with elevated speeds.
Crafted from 100 percent synthetic components, this extreme pressure lubricant offers exceptional anti-wear protection. It showcases superior resistance to elevated temperatures, thus extending the lifespan of the gearbox components. The formulation is characterized by zero shear loss, which means it maintains a stable and intact oil film even under extreme conditions. Remarkably, it retains a 90 grade after undergoing the KRL 20 hours shear test, adhering to the SAE J306 Standard that was updated in July 1998.
One of the standout features of this lubricant is its outstanding lubricating power, which significantly reduces friction and wear between moving parts. This characteristic proves invaluable in high-temperature settings, ensuring the oil film maintains its integrity and contributes to minimizing transmission noise.
Moreover, this lubricant exhibits excellent performance at low temperatures. It facilitates smoother gear shifting when the gearbox is cold, essentially requiring less effort on the gear lever. This makes it particularly beneficial for competitive scenarios where quick gear changes are essential.
The versatility of this lubricant extends to compatibility with various seal materials and yellow metals typically utilized in gearbox construction. Not only does it protect against wear and overheating, but it also possesses anti-corrosion and anti-foam properties, further enhancing the overall reliability and performance of the gearbox in demanding racing environments.
In summary, this specially designed lubricant for racing vehicle gearboxes boasts 100 percent synthetic extreme pressure formulation, delivering efficient anti-wear protection, enhanced thermal resistance, and remarkable lubricating capabilities. With its ability to maintain viscosity even under the rigorous demands of racing, it stands as an essential choice for drivers seeking optimal performance and reliability in their gear systems. Whether facing challenging racing conditions or experiencing the stress of varying speeds, this lubricant ensures that gearboxes function smoothly and efficiently.
