Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • API GL-5 is a high-performance gear lubricant specification designed for hypoid gear sets and differentials that experience high-speed, low-torque and low-speed, high-torque operating conditions. This oil also meets MT-1, meaning it is suitable for non-synchronized manual transmissions found in heavy trucks and buses, broadening the range of drivetrain components it can protect.

  • This oil is recommended for conventional and high-performance differentials, hypoid gear sets, manual transmissions, gear reducers, and transportation gearboxes subject to heavy loads and shock loading. It covers automotive, on- and off-highway truck, heavy equipment, industrial, and agricultural applications including gear sets of spur, bevel, spiral bevel, and herringbone designs.

  • It meets API GL-5, MT-1, MIL-PRF-2105E, SAE J2360, Mack GO-J/GO-H/GO-G, ArvinMeritor 0-76-A (SAE 85W-140), and International Truck (Navistar) CEMS B-22. Cross-referencing these against your equipment's owner manual or OEM fill requirements is the best way to confirm it is an approved fill for your specific unit.

  • Truegard GL-5 Gear Lubricants are available with a Limited Slip additive option across their viscosity grade lineup, but the product listing for this 85W-140 drum does not explicitly confirm it includes the Limited Slip friction modifier. Confirm with the seller whether this specific SKU is formulated for limited-slip differentials before using it in one, as the wrong lubricant can cause chatter or clutch pack wear.

  • The red dye allows technicians to quickly spot active leaks at seals, gaskets, or axle housings during routine inspections, helping pinpoint problems early. The tackifier additive increases the oil's adhesiveness to gear tooth surfaces, reducing drain-off and helping maintain a protective film under high-load and shock-loading conditions.

  • Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with soap and water immediately. The product is noted to present no significant health hazards under normal handling, but used oil must be disposed of properly in accordance with local environmental regulations, as it may contain contaminants accumulated during service.
