BP® CASTROL® Gear Oils & Transmission Fluids SKU: CSTR-OIL-GEAR

Although gearboxes and transmissions serve the same operational scope their lubricants differ. Generally, gear oils are used in manual gear boxes and transmission fluids in automatic transmissions. However, oils used in manual gearboxes are thicker, more viscous oils to withstand high temperatures and be able to function under extreme pressure. Those used in automatic transmissions are less viscous and thinner gearbox fluids which contain detergents and act as coolants while they contain further additives to improve their life expectancy.

BP® ENERGEAR range of automotive gear oils have been designed for use in a wide range of gear units with spur, bevel or helical gear design, including synchronized manual gearboxes, transmissions and axles under moderately severe load and pressure conditions. They were applicable for passenger cars, light and heavy trucks as well as agricultural and building machinery providing effective protection of gear transmissions and prolonging component life. The Energear EP range conformed to the requirements of API GL-4.

BP® ENERGEAR gear oils are replaced by respective BP® CASTROL® gear oils and transmission fluids developed to protect against wear, prolong gear life, and help to deliver optimum gear performance. They  are formulated to meet or exceed the highest industry standards featuring thermal stability, wear protection, seal compatibility and hydrolytic stability. A range of gear and transmission lubricants are offered for mobile and stationary equipment.

BP® CASTROL Synthetic Gear Lubricants

Mobile Equipment

CASTROL® AP GEAR LUBRICANT™

Multi-purpose, extreme pressure gear oil formulated with high-quality base oils and additives that provide excellent load-carrying ability, EP properties, wear resistance, oxidation stability and anti-rust, anti-corrosion and anti-foam properties. Thermally stable providing

transmission, differential and other application protection beyond that specified for SAE J2360 (Formerly MILPRF-2105E) requirements. This thermal stability extends oil service life and reduces critical component wear. Recommended for make-up and complete refill of most passenger car and light truck conventional differentials, transmission and steering gears. Key features include excellent load carrying ability, EP properties, wear resistance, oxidation stability and anti-rust and anti-corrosion qualities and anti-foam protection.

Offered in 80W-90 and 85W-140 grades.

CASTROL® AP GEAR 80W90 is a multigrade gear oil fortified to meet the requirements of API GL-5. Its primary use is for hypoid gears featured in automotive differentials but is often specified in highly loaded spiral bevel or planetary gearboxes on offshore installations and onshore drillling sites. Main advantages include good thermal/oxidation stability eliminating deposit formation that thickens the oil and superior low temperature fluidity providing smoother operation in cold start conditions.

CASTROL® AXLE FD-1 GEAR LUBRICANT™

It is a semi-synthetic, multi-grade final drive fluid designed to extend drain intervals in off-road final drives where FD-1 specified fluids are suitable for use. Castrol Axle FD-1 provides excellent wear protection and outstanding oxidation resistance and extends component life.

CASTROL® SYNGEAR™ LUBRICANT

 This premium synthetic, heavy-duty, multi-grade gear lubricant meets API GL-5 service. It provides excellent cold weather performance, outstanding stability under higher than normal operating temperatures, and substantial load carrying ability for cooler operation and longer equipment life. Offered in 75W-90 and 80W-140 grades.

Stationary Equipment

CASTROL® ALPHA® HC GEAR LUBRICANT

This fluid excels in applications that require increased oxidation control and thermal stability, consistent anti-wear performance, and low carbon-forming tendencies. Synthetic components provide the potential for extended drain intervals and reduced maintenance costs. Offered in 32, 46, 68, 150, 220, 320 & 460 grades.

CASTROL® ALPHA® HC EP GEAR LUBRICANT

This lubricant has been formulated with carefully chosen synthetic components for excellent performance in applications requiring AGMA (American Gear Manufacturers Association) EP gear oils. Offered in 68, 150, 220, 320, 460 & 680 grades.

CASTROL® ALPHA® CLP GEAR LUBRICANT (FORMERLY EP GEAR LUBRICANT)

This exceptional-quality oil is designed for severe-duty applications and offers excellent gear protection. Formulated with select base oils and coupled with an extremely stable sulfur/phosphorous additive package, it is an ideal choice where AGMA EP gear oils are recommended. The Castrol Alpha™ CLP range fulfils the requirements of DIN 51517-3 for CLP type gear oils and other key industrial specifications. Designed to deliver:

Excellent thermal and oxidation stability providing minimal viscosity increase and a stable Sulfur/phosphorus package at high temperatures

Superior demulsibility separating water readily where water contamination is present

Good corrosion, rust and antifoam protection reducing catalytic effects of corrosion and wear on various system metals

Longer equipment life, efficient gear operations, reduced maintenance costs, longer lubricant life, and excels in applications demanding superior U.S. Steel 224 performance.

Offered in 68, 150, 220, 320 & 460 grades.

CASTROL® Manual EP 80W-90, formulated with mineral bases, replaces discontinued BP® ENERGEAR 80W-90 manual transmission fluid used in applications where API GL-4 performance is required.

Its high thermal stability avoids the formation of deposits and thickening of the oil, allowing the performance of the lubricant and transmission to be maintained over time. Thanks to the good anti-wear characteristics and the ability to withstand loads, it extends the life of the mechanical components.

CASTROL® ALPHASYN T™ GEAR LUBRICANT

This lubricant has been formulated for use in most types of light- to medium-duty enclosed gear systems, but should not be used for heavy or shock-loaded systems. This lubricant is suitable for bearings and circulatory systems operating at high temperatures, as well as for various applications where a lubricating oil is used under high temperatures. All products in the Alphasyn T range have very low pour points and excellent viscosity and temperature characteristics, which allows its use in both low- and high-temperature applications. Offered in 150, 220 & 460 grades.
