Functions of Automotive Gear Oil

 

Lubrication and Friction Reduction: Gears and bearings in a car’s transmission system experience high levels of friction and heat during operation. Gear oil acts as a lubricant, forming a protective film between these moving components, reducing friction, and preventing metal-to-metal contact. Proper lubrication ensures smoother gear changes, reduces wear on gears, and extends their lifespan.

 

Wear and Corrosion Protection: Over time, gears can develop wear patterns due to the tremendous forces and repetitive motion they undergo. Gear oil contains additives that provide an extra layer of protection against wear, minimizing the damage caused by metal-on-metal contact. Additionally, gear oil helps prevent corrosion and rust formation, safeguarding the transmission system from moisture and other environmental factors.

 

Cooling Properties: The transmission system generates significant heat during operation, which can potentially lead to overheating and damage. Gear oil acts as a coolant, dissipating heat from the gears, bearings, and other components. Efficient heat dissipation ensures that the transmission operates within the recommended temperature range, preventing overheating-related issues and ensuring optimal performance.

 

Hydraulic Pressure for Shifting: In vehicles with manual transmissions, gear oil also serves as a hydraulic fluid. It plays a crucial role in creating hydraulic pressure, which facilitates smooth gear shifting. The viscosity of the gear oil affects the ease of shifting gears, ensuring the driver experiences minimal resistance and a more comfortable driving experience.

Automotive Gear Oil Storage and Handling

Similar to most oils, gear oils should be stored in a clean and dry space. Often (especially in the past), these gear oils see a settling of the additives to the bottom of the container, indicating a slightly shorter oil life span than other lubricants. However, this is no longer a highly occurring incident with the advancements in additive technology and improved blending practices.

 

As usual, it is always best to adhere to the OEM’s expiry dates for these products, as different OEMs recommend varying storage times for their products. Generally, synthetic lubricants have an estimated shelf life of 5-10 years, while mineral oils usually last for around 2-3 years, but this is heavily dependent on the OEM and storage conditions.

 

In some cases, customers tend to store these drums outside in the elements as it makes it easier for them to be readily accessible for decanting into the equipment. However, in these environments, the drums can collect water, which will enter the oil and then, by extension, enter the gearbox. This can cause issues for the equipment and lead to accelerated oil degradation.

 

Ideally, these oils should be stored in a cool, dry place with ready access to decanting equipment where the decanted oil will not be easily contaminated. Many industrial gearboxes typically require larger quantities of oil, and decanting can take place directly from the drum into the equipment or via a pump.

 

In these cases, the level of contamination must be minimized by ensuring that the fittings, hoses, etc., are clean and have not been used to decant other types of oils.

FAQ

 

Q: Does automotive gear oil have a shelf life?

A: Normal Shelf Life: In general, the recommended shelf life for oils and greases is typically five years when stored properly in the original sealed containers. Industrial and automotive oils may show deterioration by one or more of the following: • Cloudy appearance or strong odor.

Q: Can you mix brands of gear oil?

A: For optimal performance, we recommend you follow the manufacturer's recommendations and only use one brand of gear oil. However, it is possible to mix gear oil brands, providing both fluids have the same viscosity, API rating, and application.

Q: How often should I change my auto gear oil?

A: Manual gearboxes usually require a gearbox oil change every 30,000 to 50,000 mi (48,000 to 80,000 km). Automatic gearboxes usually have gear oil change intervals of between 60,000 to 100,000 mi (96,000 to 160,000 km). It's advisable that you change your gearbox oil filter at the same time as your oil.

Q: How can you tell if gear oil is bad?

A: You can't shift gears or your vehicle is stuck in gear. You experience significantly lower gas mileage. Your vehicle seems to have trouble downshifting when your vehicle slows down. Your vehicle's engine roars loudly and has difficulty shifting to higher gears when you attempt to accelerate.
