What are the differences between GL4 and GL5 gear oils?
1 Answers
GL4 and GL5 gear oils are introduced as follows: 1. Introduction 1: First of all, GL-4 grade is a medium-load gear oil, suitable for differential gears, transmission gears, and steering gears, while GL-5 is a heavy-load gear oil, suitable for differential gears and rear axle gears that operate under particularly harsh conditions. 2. Introduction 2: Compared with GL-4 grade gear oil, GL-5 grade gear oil contains more sulfur, almost half more acidic, so its corrosiveness is naturally stronger. In terms of price, since GL-5 gear oil is one grade higher than GL-4, it is naturally more expensive. However, some friends have a misconception that using more expensive gear oil will be beneficial for the car.
