The 80W90 gear Oil, the characteristics of which we will discuss today can be attributed to the medium between the classes and the viscosity 85W90 75W90. Find out more what quality characteristics it differs from the other.
The Transmission oil are condensed and single-grade. The second is sometimes also called odnomandatniki. In the first case, the set of the additive, thickening basis. Then two numbers is the gear oil: 80W90. Features odnomandatnik manifested in the fact that they are made without the addition of thickeners. They are represented by a single number - for example, 80, 90, 140.
Comparative analysis of the viscosity in the operating mode have two types (samples were taken for comparison, the viscosity of SAE 80W90 and 85W90) were approximately the same. But when working with low temperature condensed species become more liquid when compared with single-grade. Therefore, in this indicator, they show themselves better. On the other hand, adenomalacia lubrication work more steadily in an appropriate and normal for them temperatures. But it is also a very important parameter when working, especially in harsh environments.
Oil gear 80W90 and 85W90 has the same viscosity at operating temperature of one hundred degrees. But if you take the mark of minus twenty degrees, the difference will be different at many times.
Sometimes the producers themselves called all types of gelled multigrade lubricating fluids. But it is not quite correct statement. So, oil 80W90 transmission characteristics will show serviceable at minus 26 O, 75W90 – at -40 O, and 85W90 — only if -12 OC. Thus, for residents of the southern regions all indicators are proving to be suitable for year round use. But for those who live in Northern areas, settings, 85W90, 80W90 and sometimes, are not enough.

Oil consumption in the engine. Six reasons
It is Hardly possible to find a motorist who would not be worried about the increased oil consumption. It is especially annoying when it happens with another new motor. Here are the most common causes that result in the consumption of oil in the engi...
When comparing a lubricating fluid, the main indicator, which draws attention is the welding load. It is defined in usual 4-ball machine friction. As the oil 80W90 transmission, the characteristics of which are group according to API classification, belongs to the group GL 5 (and it assumes operation in heavily loaded axles and hypoid gears) as well as viscosity grade 85W90, the result on the standard should be 3280 N. The samples under study according to test results shown from 3283 to 4635 N. This shows that there is good qualitative characteristics of the transmission lubricating fluids.
But in addition to this classification, there is another, domestic. According to her, the requirements are more stringent than the API abroad and for foreign cars. For example, according to representatives of AVTOVAZ, class GL 5 should produce results no less 3483 N, and in this norm is everything 3924 N. So if you focus on domestic manufacturers, the test results will not seem so satisfactory.
It is Possible to consider specific single-grade oil "Castrol". All of its indicators except for viscosity at a certain temperature, will be not worse thickened lubricating fluids. Thus the wider the operating range, the harder it will be compare segusino with nezapominam. For example, if the gear oil 80W90 (GL 5 according to API classification) will show good strength at centigrade mark will be to support the load at the proper level, and keep a great quality of low-temperature, single-grade oil will support the load as well as lubricant SAE 90, or will have the same low-temperature properties of oil SAE 80.
So, "Castrol" group EPX80 showed close to 80W90 consider the result on the parameter of gradostroitelstva. At the same time, his load joining isn't particularly great.
However, this result suggests that single-grade transmission oil is worse than thickened. This only shows that it should be used in more suitable conditions.
So, the good qualitative characteristics of the viscosity is 150 degrees Celsius and above 5 square millimeters per second. At low temperatures, excellent viscosity is one that does not increase more than 150000 MPa*s. the temperature, which will in this dimension, and is the limit to ensure the normal operation of transmission. If the lubricant fluid to be used at a lower setting, then it is bad for car engines.
Before this question simply did not arise. It was enough just to tell the seller that needs engine or transmission oil. But at this time when store shelves overflow with many types of oils, it is necessary to understand their variousthe parameters to eventually understand the oil fill in manual transmission or automatic.
For Example, it is known that are suitable for cars of the group GL 4 and GL 5 and for domestic even lower.
But in regard to viscosity, it is more complicated. For example, if you take gear oil 80W90 (drivers in this are similar to the results of independent tests), they have a more cold-resistant characteristics than 85W90 and can safely be used at temperatures from -20 to -25 C. At the same time to transmission viscosity grade 85W90 normal operation will be provided only to minus 12 O.
And a group of oil and its viscosity are indicated on the packaging cans. So all that is left for the motorist to understand the required parameters for machines and to choose a certain brand of oil.
To Understand the basic characteristics, you can go to certain types of gear lubricating fluids.
Among the best oils of this class includes gear oil «LUKOIL» TM 80W90 4. It is simple and inexpensive, but high quality lubricating fluid which will be fine to work on cars and trucks Maslouski. It is manufactured on a mineral basis. In addition to the base lubricant contains a package of additives improving properties. Good shows itself even at much lower temperatures and can remain in working condition for a long time. Of course, the oil can not be called elite, but for “workhorses” this transmissione — just what you need.
Benefits of the oil are as follows:
The Work group on API-GL 4 is the only drawback that has this gear oil 80W90. The price might seem tempting: from 137 rubles per liter. For comparison: "TNK Transhipped" 80W90 is 539 rubles per liter; Motul Gearbox 80W90 – 855; Ford 80W90 – 1300 rubles.
