Red Line Lightweight Shockproof Gear Oil
From £27.95
Red Line Lightweight Shockproof Gearbox and Transmission Oil is a unique lubricant that has solid microscopic particles suspended in the oil and offers low drag but high protection.
The oil has a film thickness greater than an SAE 75W140 giving high protection and resists throw off, yet it has a low fluid friction like 80W gear oil or 30W motor oil for reduced drag.
Highly recommended in Hewland gearboxes.
Ideal for racing differentials and is popular in racing transmissions like Hewland and other Road Racing dog-ring boxes.
Avoid use with pumps, coolers, and filters as unique medium and affinity for metal can cause clogging.
Designed for wet sump transmissions and differentials with splash lubrication.
Sold in 1 US Quart bottles and 1 US Gallon bottles.

Red Line makes gear oils for specific applications, not one type to satisfy most fairly well.
Their GL-5 differential lubricants contain friction modifiers and reducers to lubricate limited-slip clutches properly and reduce friction of the ring and pinion. Non Slip or "NS" gear oils are designed for transmission use where synchronizers need the proper friction to synchronize gear shifts.
The “MT” series is designed for synchronized gearshift applications where lower sulfur levels are desired.
All formulas have a high viscosity index to deliver relatively constant viscosity with temperature change. Synthetic polyol ester base stocks deliver excellent lubrication under extreme conditions, superior shear and oxidation stability, as well as natural multigrade properties, eliminating the need for unstable thickeners.
Red Line gear and transmission oils are recommended for passenger car, commercial and racing applications.
