Modern Transmissions

Varying speeds and loads causes torque multiplication and extreme stress on gears and bearings. To prevent wear damage resulting from insufficient fluid film, AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient ATF is formulated with high film strength (shear stability) and a select anti-wear/extreme-pressure additive that develops a boundary layer of protection between metal surfaces. Even though AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient Automatic Transmission Fluid is a low-viscosity, fuel-efficient fluid, it has demonstrated its ability to protect as well as or better than higher-viscosity fluids in the most severe industry tests.

Modern transmissions are smaller in design, yet are called upon to deliver smoother shifts and longer fluid-life capabilities in higher-horsepower and higher torque conditions. AMSOIL placed great emphasis on developing a fluid to effectively address the complex demands related to friction. AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient Automatic Transmission Fluid delivers out-standing clutch-holding capacity (static friction), torque transfer ability (dynamic friction) and anti-shudder properties (slipping torque-converter clutches).
