Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

TUTELA TRANSMISSION STARGEAR AX (PLI code 77252) is a lubricant for the axles of cars and commercial vehicles, especially Mercedes-Benz, that allows maximum protection of the mechanical parts during use at high temperatures and under severe operating conditions. Its modern formulation ensures protection against wear, oxidation and rust, while the viscosity characteristics allow rapid and safe lubrication during cold starts and operation at low temperatures. The amber SAE 85W-90 fluid has a kinematic viscosity of 17 cSt at 100°C, a viscosity index of 95, a pour point of -30°C and a flash point of 215°C, with foam limited to traces. The product meets API GL-5 and MIL-L-2105 D, holds the MB-Approval 235.0, is suitable for RENAULT applications where API GL-5 is recommended, covers ZF TE-ML 16C, 17B, 19B and 21A and meets MAN 342 Type M1 performance. Supplied in 20-litre packs; always check the axle manufacturer's requirements before use.
