What kind of oil should be added to a BorgWarner transfer case?
1 Answers
BorgWarner transfer cases require gear oil. Gear oil: Gear oil primarily refers to the lubricating oil used in transmissions and rear axles. It differs from engine oil in terms of usage conditions, composition, and performance characteristics. Gear oil mainly functions to lubricate gears and bearings, prevent wear and corrosion, and assist in heat dissipation for gears. Applications of gear oil: Automotive gear oil is used in gear transmission mechanisms such as steering gearboxes, transmissions, and drive axles. Due to the high surface pressure during gear transmission, gear oil plays a crucial role in lubrication, anti-wear, cooling, heat dissipation, anti-corrosion and rust prevention, cleaning, and reducing gear surface impact and noise.
