Description

Aral Getriebeoel HYP SYNTH 75W-90 is a synthetic-based, all-season gear oil with friction-reducing properties. It is intended for heavily loaded hypoid axles as well as for manual gearboxes and final drives in passenger cars, motorcycles, trucks, construction and agricultural machinery.

It is classified API GL-4 and GL-5; the documents list no official vehicle-manufacturer approvals, so its use is governed by the equipment manufacturer's specifications.

Typical figures from the safety data sheet: kinematic viscosity 14.8 mm²/s at 100 °C and 108.1 mm²/s at 40 °C, pour point -45 °C, flash point above 180 °C. Available in 20, 60 and 208 litre packs.

Application

Heavily loaded hypoid axles, manual gearboxes and final drives in passenger cars, motorcycles, trucks, construction and agricultural machinery, as specified by the equipment manufacturer.

Worth knowing

The dual API GL-4 and GL-5 rating of HYP SYNTH 75W-90 is not backed by any equipment-maker code, and that sets it apart from the other two 75W-90 oils in the Aral Getriebeoel range. If an axle calls for MAN 342 Type S1, Scania STO 1:0 or one of the ZF TE-ML classes listed for Getriebeoel BS 75W-90, that is the oil in the range for which they are declared, also a 75W-90 of API GL-5. For a gearbox that requires VW 501.50 the range has EP SYNTH 75W-90, but without GL-5. The article on GL-4, GL-5 and gear oil viscosity explains why the “GL-4/GL-5” wording on the can does not by itself make an oil suitable for a particular gearbox.

According to the safety data sheet, this oil’s pour point, -45 °C, is the highest in the range: EP SYNTH has -51 °C, BS -57 °C and SNS-A 75W-85 -60 °C. Its viscosity at 40 °C, 108.1 mm²/s, is also the highest of the three 75W-90 oils.
