Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

eni Rotra 85W-140 is a gear lubricant based on high viscosity index mineral oil, with a specific anti-wear additive package. It is intended for certain types of transmission without hypoid gears — the front-wheel drives of vehicles with transverse engines, for instance. More generally, it can be used in all power transmission gearing that is not subject to excessive loads or sliding between the teeth, and for which the manufacturers prescribe an anti-wear lubricant at API GL-3 performance level.

Applications

• Mineral-based, high viscosity-index gearbox lubricant with specific antiwear additivation.
• Designed for integrated transmissions (transaxle) without hypoid gears, e.g. front-wheel-drive vehicles with transverse engines.
• Suitable for gear trains where power transfer does not entail excessive pressure or tooth load, where an API GL-3 lubricant is prescribed for antiwear properties.

Performance & benefits

• Antiwear properties keep bearings and gear teeth in optimum condition, even after prolonged operation.
• Chemical stability and oxidation resistance allow longer drain intervals.
• Detergent-dispersant properties keep impurities in suspension, preventing deposit formation.
• Not corrosive to steel and copper parts, keeping all lubricated gearbox items in optimum condition and preventing corrosion even in the presence of moisture.
• Antifoam qualities prevent excessive air-bubble formation that could affect the continuity of the lubricant film.
• A high viscosity index ensures reliable performance of all lubricated parts over a wide range of operating temperatures.
