What is the function of transmission oil?
1 Answers
Automobile transmission oil, also known as gearbox oil, serves the following purposes: it maintains the cleanliness of the gear shift system, lubricates to prolong the lifespan of the transmission components, and provides effective lubrication even in low-temperature conditions, reducing oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Characteristics of transmission oil: 1. Each automatic transmission design has unique technical requirements. Even the same model of transmission configured in different vehicles may vary in torque, weight, speed, and structure. Therefore, the original manufacturer specifies its own dedicated transmission oil. 2. The fundamental difference lies in the friction system. HFM-ATF features finer oil molecules and superior anti-shear capability. During semi-clutch conditions or at the moment of engagement, the oil film on the friction material surface creates an effective suspension state, reducing slippage and buffering sudden strong impacts, resulting in smoother engagement and gear shifting. Additionally, the fine oil molecules significantly minimize valve sticking, ensuring smoother operation of the valve body.
