Description
Unique lubricant with solid microscopic particles offers low drag/high protection. Relatively low viscosity, yet cushions gear teeth under extreme pressure. Helps to prevent tooth breakage, resists throw-off.
- Film thickness greater than an SAE 75W90, yet low fluid friction like ATF
- Used in low-power dog-ring racing transaxles with moderate to low load, qualifying, etc.
Avoid use with pumps, coolers, and filters as unique medium and affinity for metal can cause clogging. Designed for wet sump transmissions and differentials with splash lubrication.
RED LINE SYNTHETIC SUPERLIGHT SHOCKPROOF GEAR OIL provides unequalled protection for high-performance differentials and transmissions which are heavily loaded or which see shock-loading. This revolutionary lubricant is completely different from conventional lubricant technology in several ways. The viscosity characteristics are significantly improved. Gear teeth need high-viscosity at high-temperatures to prevent metal-to-metal contact and a low viscosity when cold to reduce fluid friction. The Shockproof chemistry significantly reduces the thinning effect of high-temperatures, and can be rated as a 70W90 Gear Oil, which provides the viscosity in the thin layers between the gear teeth, but has the lower internal fluid friction of an ATF viscosity, which means very little power loss for the protection achieved. Shockproof Gear Oil has 40% lower coefficient of friction and 250% the load-carrying capacity compared to lower conventional gear oils, which means that metal-to-metal friction is greatly reduced. Temperature reductions between 25° F – 75° F are common in circle track, road racing, and off-road racing. Improved durability in high-performance use is the primary benefit of the SuperLight ShockProof and along with the improved durability is an improvement in efficiency. For maximum durability, use Heavy ShockProof or LightWeight ShockProof. The cushioning effect of the Shockproof chemistry allows the use of light viscosities in man performance applications with little sacrifice in durability. Red Line ShockProof can be used in conventional, limited-slip, or locker differentials. Red Line ShockProof is designed for use in competition differentials and transmissions.
