IT'S MORE THAN JUST OIL. IT'S LIQUID ENGINEERING.
As vehicles are required to carry heavier loads and the need for durability increases, driveline fluids are more and more critical for vehicle reliability. Getting the right oil for your vehicle is key to ensuring your gearboxes and axles operate as they are designed to, and get the maximum protection under demanding conditions.
Castrol, with over 100 years of experience in developing gearbox oils and, being the choice of many leading vehicle and equipment manufacturers for factory-fill products, offers a range of gear oils for your vehicle’s requirements; providing you the peace of mind that you are getting the right oil for your vehicle and keeping your vehicle in operation longer.
Premium synthetic universal powershift and automatic transmission fluid. For ‘rigorous duty’ applications where extended drain intervals and reduced life cycle costs are designed in Allison 5000, 6000, 8000 and 9000 off-highway series transmissions.
Product sold exclusively through Allison Transmission Distributor Network, i.e. Heavy Automatics, MTU Detroit Diesel &Transdiesel in Australia.
REPLACES TQ-DIII, TRANSMAX M AND ATF DEX II
For car and commercial vehicle applications. An automatic transmission fluid specifically designed to meet the requirements of Volvo Trucks 97341, Allison TES 389, superseded General Motors DEXRON® III H, Ford MERCON® and Allison C4 specifications. Suitable for use in GM automatic transmissions pre 2005 and in many automatic transmissions where DEXRON® (II or III) or Mercon performance is required. It is also suitable for many earlier model Japanese vehicles where DEXRON® type fluids are recommended. It is recommended for other transmissions where DEXRON® and DEXRON® II fluids are specified except Mercedes-Benz, ZF, BMW, Voith and Renk.
Multipurpose axle oil which may be used in differentials, final drives and other applications
Approved by ZF for use in a range of axle
Protector Series
High viscosity, multipurpose axle fluid oil for use in differentials, final drives and other applications where API GL-5 is required.
Recommended for use in differentials, gear boxes and steering gears of cars. Castrol Axle EPX 85W-140 should be considered for use over the lighter Castrol Axle EPX 80W-90 when ambient temperatures are high (in the vicinity of 30?C or above).
Protector Series
Specially formulated extreme pressure gear oil for Mack differentials, transmissions and gear cases. It is also suitable for use in other truck, passenger car, commercial vehicle and earthmoving applications where SAE 85W-90 or SAE 90, API GL-5 is specified.
Approved by ZF for use in a range of axle
Protector Series
Mineral based gear oil for use in limited differentials in cars and commercial vehicles where API GL-5 performance is required; also suitable for use in conventional differentials. May be recommended for use in differentials, gear boxes, and steering gears of many cars, trucks, farm machinery, earthmoving and excavating machinery requiring a hypoid lubricant. It is particularly recommended for conventional hypoid differentials where the differential is operating with very high loads. The higher level of extreme pressure and limited slip additives give added wear protection in both conventional and limited slip hypoid differentials.
Mineral based gear oil designed for use in axles and final drives operating under severe conditions and over a wide range of operating temperatures. It is specifically approved for use in MB Actros, MAN, Scania and ZF axles and is also recommended for other applications where API GL-5 or SAE J2360 performance is required.
*Scania do not recommend SAE 80W-90 grades in Australia
Synthetically fortified manual transmission and final drive lubricant. Suitable for use in highly loaded final drives and differentials of commercial vehicles in trucks, buses, vans and 4WD’s as well as synchronised manual transmissions requiring API GL-4 or GL-5.
High quality, extreme performance mineral gear oil for heavy duty gearbox and rear axle operations where slow operational speeds and high loads necessitate the use of an API GL-5 gear lubricant with a higher viscosity than traditional 85W-140. Suited to vehicles in various off-highway applications such as mining and quarry haulage. Suited where API GL-5 SAE 140 gear oils are recommended in low speed operations.
Approved by ZF for use in a range of axle
Specially formulated synthetic transmission fluid designed for extended drain and severe service in heavy duty manual transmissions which require a non EP gear or transmission fluid. It is approved against Eaton PS 164 Rev.7 and suitable for use in transmissions used in road transport equipment where long drain intervals and extended warranty conditions apply.
Approved by ZF for use in a range of axle
Fully synthetic manual transmission fluid with excellent performance for up to 400,000 km oil drains intervals in manual transmission applications. It is our prime recommendation for Volvo, Spicer, Eaton, Road Ranger and Rockwell truck transmissions, in both normal and severe duty conditions.
It is suitable for both synchronised and non-synchronised manual transmissions. It is particularly recommended for long haul interstate trucks, B-double, road train and other severe duty applications.
However it may also be used in manual transmissions of cars and light commercial vehicles where API GL-4 oils are recommended.
Fully synthetic rear axle oil for arduous service in rear axle (differential) and power dividers. Recommended for use in Eaton and Rockwell rear axles operating where long oil drain periods and extended warranty conditions apply. Also recommended for use under severe conditions, particularly in B-double or road train applications.
Full synthetic multigrade final drive lubricant, designed to provide superior protection at both high and low operating temperatures where conventional mineral oils prove unsatisfactory.
For MAN Heavy Duty commercial vehicles and for all BMX conventional differentials
Advanced Performance Series
Fully synthetic multipurpose manual transmission and final drive lubricant for smooth shift at low temperatures.
For synchronized manual transmissions and final drives/differentials of a wide range of vehicles (commercial vehicles, construction equipment, passenger cars) where API GL-4 or GL-5 are required.
Suitable for use where the following specifications apply:
Advanced Performance Series
Premium synthetic universal powershift and automatic transmission fluid. Extends oil change guidelines for Allison transmissions to 160,000 km/48 months for general duty and, 80,000km/24 months for severe duty. Product sold exclusively through Allison Transmission Distributor Network, i.e. Heavy Automatics, MTU Detroit Diesel &Transdiesel in Australia.
A range of transmission fluids specifically formulated to satisfy the requirements of Allison C4, Caterpillar TO-4 and Komatsu transmission fluid requirements. Powershift transmissions in many types of earthmoving equipment.
