1 Answers
It is recommended to change the gear oil every 60,000 kilometers for a new car. Below are the specific details about gear oil: 1. Composition: Gear oil is primarily made from petroleum lubricating base oil or synthetic lubricating oil, mixed with extreme pressure anti-wear agents and oiliness agents to form an important type of lubricating oil. 2. Function: It is used in various gear transmission devices to prevent gear surface wear, scuffing, sintering, etc., thereby extending their service life and improving power transmission efficiency. 3. Characteristics: Gear oil should have excellent anti-wear and load-bearing properties, along with appropriate viscosity. Additionally, it should possess good thermal oxidation stability, anti-foaming properties, water separation performance, and rust prevention capabilities.
