AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube is an exclusive AMSOIL formulation of synthetic base oils and high performance additives that address the specific concerns of marine applications. It is extreme pressure (EP) additive fortified for superior protection of fast accelerating, high torque/horsepower engines. It protects against shock loading from cavitation of heavily loaded engines.

AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube is water resistant. It maintains extreme pressure protection even when contaminated with as much as 10% water. It promotes longer seal life, preventing excessive water leakage. AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube protects against rust and is compatible with aluminum, copper and brass alloys.

AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube is recommended for fresh and salt water applications requiring either 75W-90 or 80W-90 viscosity grade and meeting either API GL-4 or GL-5 performance standards.

AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube provides: Excellent Gear and Bearing Protection even when contaminated with 10% water Reduced Friction and Wear Rust and Corrosion Protection Long Seal Life Superior Foam Prevention

Marine gear oils operate in environments subject to water contamination. AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube has the ability to maintain designed qualities such as extreme pressure/anti-wear performance and resistance to foaming, even when subjected to 10% water contamination. (See Chart and additional information on the AMSOIL Technical Data Sheet available for download in the Additional Information Section below.)

The Falex Procedure is measurement of a gear lube's extreme pressure and anti-wear properties. A high value in the Falex Extreme Pressure Test relates to extra extreme pressure protection. AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube is not affected by water and provides 50% more extreme pressure protection for long gear and bearing life.

Examples of AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube applications include: Outboard Lower Units: Mercury/Mariner Johnson/Evinrude Bombardier Honda Yamaha Suzuki Force/US Marine Nissan Tohatsu Harbormaster Marine Outboard Drives Sears Gamefisher and Seagull Sterndrives: Mercruiser-Bravo OMC/Bombardier Volvo-Penta Yanmar Konrad Marine Drive Systems V-Drives: Casale & Menkens Bow & Tunnel Thrusters: Harbormaster Marine Marine Transmissions: ZF Marine Transmission

The presence of foam in a lubricant disrupts oil film and promotes wear. Water contamination can increase the likelihood of foaming. Industry standard testing demonstrates zero foam in both new and water-contaminated AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine Gear Lube. Other conventional gear lubes can foam when mixed with water.

The use of AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lubes will not void equipment warranties. New equipment warranties are based upon the use of lubricants meeting specific service classifications. All AMSOIL Lubricants meet the current service requirements (as labeled) and thus are recommended for use in any equipment without affecting the validity of the new equipment warranty.

AMSOIL INC. warrants that the use of its products will not cause mechanical damage to any mechanically sound equipment when AMSOIL INC. products are used in full compliance with the company’s recommendations.

AMSOIL Universal Synthetic Marine gear Lube is compatible with other commercially available conventional and synthetic marine gear lubes.

Follow manufacturers recommended service intervals.

It is generally a good idea to change gear lube at the end of the season prior to storage.
