5、companies, and users all reference specifications to define the lubricant for a given axle or manual transmission. This document catalogs these specifications and provides valuable information about these lubricants. FOREWORD In 1943, the U.S. Army Ordnance Department (currently the Fuels and Lubric

6、ants Technology Team, under Petroleum and Water Business Area of US Army Tank, Automotive, Research, Development and Engineering Center - TARDEC) began qualifying gear lubricants against U.S. Army Specification 2105. This specification has gone through several revisions, the most recent being MIL-PR

7、F-2105E The American Petroleum Institute recognizes gear lubricants meeting this latter specification as API Service GL-5 (API GL-5). In 1977, the U.S. Army terminated direct sponsorship of the qualification process and contracted with SAE to: (a) perform the reviewing activity, and (b) make recomme

8、ndations relative to the acceptance of candidate products under the military gear lubricant specification. In accordance with its contract with SAE, the U.S. Army retains sole responsibility for approving and qualifying products to its specification. Following termination of the U.S. Army sponsorshi

9、p, the SAE Board of Directors established a Lubricants Review Institute (LRI), which in turn has established an LRI Gear Lubricant Review Committee. This committee developed procedures for submitting candidate lubricants for review as well as procedures for reviewing such lubricants. The LRI activit

10、ies are reviewed by SAE Legal Counsel to ensure compliance with applicable federal and state laws. The LRI Gear Lubricant Review Procedures can be obtained from SAE Headquarters in Warrendale, PA. In 1991 the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) issued a directive to adopt, wherever practical, commercia

11、l standards in preference to federal and military specifications. This was done to curtail the governmental activities required to maintain these specifications. In response to this directive the military specification was rewritten as a performance specification, MIL-PRF-2105E, and SAE established

12、SAE J2360 in 1998. SAE J2360 is identical to MIL-PRF-2105E with the exception that it provides a procedure for any marketer who meets all the performance requirements to be added to a qualified products list. In 2005, DoD adopted the SAE J2360 document for procurement of all gear oils used in tactic

13、al/combat vehicles used by the military services. Over the years, specifications for passenger car and commercial vehicle axle and manual transmission fluids have deviated from the basic MIL Spec requirements by incorporating additional requirements for specific applications. In such cases OEMs usua

14、lly use MIL specs or portions of MIL Specs as foundations to which they add additional requirements.

34、lphia, PA 19111-5094. MIL-PRF-2105E 3. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS In axles and manual transmissions, gears and bearings of different designs are employed under a variety of service conditions. Therefore, the selection of a lubricant involves careful consideration of the performance characteristics

35、required. The following sections describe performance characteristics of axle and manual transmission lubricants which are important in field service. A lubricant is a blend of base stocks and additives optimized for a particular service. Additive packages enhance base stock performance for each per

36、formance characteristic. 3.1 Load-Carrying Capacity One of the most important performance characteristics is load-carrying capacity. The load on gear teeth is a function of the contact area of, and the force applied to the surfaces in contact. Contact area is controlled by gear design; applied force

37、 is determined by the power needed to drive the equipment. The load-carrying capacity of a gear lubricant is defined by the maximum load which can be sustained by the lubricant without failure of gear teeth surfaces. If the load-carrying capacity is exceeded, the lubricant fails to protect the gears

38、 and the gear teeth become damaged. The most common forms of damage are adhesive wear (scuffing) and scoring. Load-carrying capacity is determined by a fluids viscosity at the operating temperature, and by additives. Gear lubricants compounded to achieve increased load-carrying capacity may be refer

39、red to as “extreme pressure“ (EP) lubricants. However, when this term is applied to a gear lubricant, it means only that the load-carrying capacity of the lubricant is greater than that of untreated oil,2with no distinction as to how much greater it may be. The American Petroleum Institute (API) has

40、 developed a classification system which addresses this concern (see Section 5). 2Untreated oil is defined as either refined petroleum or synthetic lubricant base oil containing no supplemental performance additives.

Refer to SAE J306 for axle and manual transmission lubricant viscosity classification information. 3.2.1 Viscos

42、ity LossMultigrade Lubricants Viscosity and film thickness are critical in both axle and transmission applications. Some multigrade gear lubricants are formulated with viscosity modifiers. Caution should be exercised when multigrade gear lubricants are used, since these may experience significant vi

43、scosity loss due to shear in field service. The shear stresses and shear rates encountered in gear applications can be significantly greater than those in most other lubricant applications. 3.3 Thermal Stability and Oxidation Resistance Factors affecting thermal stability (cleanliness) and oxidation

44、 (thickening) characteristics while the lubricant is in service include ambient temperature, duty cycle, length of service, and the effects of contamination. Poor lubricant performance can result in oil thickening and/or the formation of deposits on parts. Even when lubricants are stored (prior to u

45、se), care should be exercised to ensure that they are not exposed to extreme temperatures and are kept free of contaminants. These precautions are intended to ensure optimum lubricant life. Modern vehicle designs have resulted in significantly higher operating temperatures in axles and transmissions

46、. Oils which do not have a high degree of thermal stability and oxidation resistance can form significant carbon and varnish deposits, which can cause premature seal failure and/or interfere with frictional surfaces used for traction control. For automotive axles and transmissions in mild service, t

47、he temperature of the lubricant may not be sufficiently high to cause significant oxidation. For vehicles operating in moderate to severe conditions of service such as passenger cars pulling trailers, or for trucks or buses in service where higher temperatures occur, thermal stability and oxidation

48、resistance are important factors. Accordingly, only oils with a high degree of thermal stability and oxidation resistance should be used in these applications. The vehicle operator should consult the manufacturers service guide for drain and refill recommendations. 3.4 Foaming and Air Entrainment Ex

49、cessive foaming may interfere with proper lubrication of gear and bearing surfaces and, consequently, should be avoided. Further, foaming can cause leakage via normal venting passages, thereby reducing lubricant sump volume. Foam can appear as a heavy froth on the surface of the oil. Air entrainment occurs w
