AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® Synthetic Extreme Pressure (EP) Gear Lube is a premium-grade gear oil specifically engineered for maximum performance in severe-duty applications. This state-of-the-art AMSOIL formulation features an exclusive blend of high-viscosity, shear-stable synthetic base oils and an extra treatment of high-performance additives. AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® Synthetic EP Gear Lube maintains its viscosity for long-lasting protection against metal-to-metal contact. The proprietary AMSOIL additives form an iron-sulfide barrier coating on gear surfaces, providing the ultimate line of defense against wear, pitting and scoring. AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® helps prevent "thermal runaway" - a phenomenon caused by a lubricant's inability to control friction and increased heat under high-stress conditions. By controlling thermal runaway, AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® Synthetic EP Gear Lube inhibits rapid lubricant degradation and component damage. Equipment runs better and lasts longer with AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® Synthetic EP Gear Lube.

A multi-functional lubricant designed to surpass the requirements of equipment and automotive applications calling for an SAE 80W-90 viscosity grade. Formulated with wax-free synthetic base oils and high-quality additives, AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR resists thermal breakdown. Its naturally high viscosity index and shear-stable construction improve film strength and viscosity retention. Provides outstanding protection for gears and bearings, resists heat and helps extend equipment life.
AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® 80W-90 provides:
• High Load Gear and Bearing Protection
• Longer Oil and Equipment Life
• Lower Maintenance Costs
• Compatibility With Conventional and Synthetic Gear Lubes
• Multi-functional for Multiple Applications
For product service life in differentials, consult your owner’s manual or the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to establish the application, NORMAL or SEVERE.
| . | Normal Service | Severe Service |
| Cars, SUVs, Light Trucks | Drain at 100,000 miles of service or according to the owner's manual, whichever is longer | Drain at 50,000 miles of service or according to the owner's manual, whichever is longer |
| Heavy-Duty Class 8 Line Haul | Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or hours) for synthetic oil up to 250,000 miles or three years, whichever comes first. | |
| Vocational/Delivery | Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or hours) for synthetic oil up to 120,000 miles or three years, whichever comes first. | |
| Heavy Duty Off-Road | Follow the OEM drain interval (miles or hours) for synthetic oil up to 100,000 miles or two years, whichever comes first. | |
For product service life in non-differential applications, consult owner’s manual or the OEM for either normal or severe synthetic oil service intervals. Where service intervals are unavailable, drain at twice the interval for conventional oil.
Note: AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals where water contamination occurs. Check and service the gear oil frequently when water contamination is possible.
Gear oils should be changed more frequently when operating vehicles or equipment in dusty or dirty conditions unless the gear system is properly sealed and equipped with membrane type breathers.
AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR (80W-90) provides superior performance and replaces competitors' 80W-90 gear oils. It is formulated to exceed the requirements of front and rear differentials, transfer cases, transaxles, manual transmissions, oil-lubricated wheel bearings and steering gear boxes.
AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR (80W-90) is compatible with synthetic and conventional gear oils, however mixing oils reduces the benefits and nullifies the extended service life recommendations.
AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR (80W-90) is compatible with most limited slip differentials. If limited slip differential chatter occurs, add AMSOIL Slip-Lock™ friction modifier additive.
This product is not expected to cause health concerns when used for the intended application and according to the recommendations in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

I''m going to start towing a camper several times a year and wanted a quality gear oil in the diff and new transmission fluid. After much research I decided on Amsoil and have piece of mind that it will protect just fine.

I have been using the Synthetic 80W-90W Gear Lube in the Transmission and Final Drive unit of my 2001 BMW R1150GS motorcycle or years. It never breaks down between changes even though I ride in 1st and 2nd gear for hours on Utah desert roads for hours at a time. shifting is always silky smooth. I highly recommend Amsoil Synthetic Gear Lube wherever the motorcycle specs call for Gear Lube. If your Transmission also houses a "wet clutch" be sure to research the correct Amsoil product to use with a "wet clutch" as there is a special requirement to insure that "wet clutches" won't slip.
We go on two week trips every year on which we average about 5,000 miles and I have had not problems :-)

Reviewed by Swampy swimmer:
It's a gear oil... I just poured it in about a week ago. Can't really say anything yet. I suppose it does what it should. I actually overfilled the rear differential because my truck was on the hill when I changed the oil, so I wanted to make it right and parked on the leveled surface today and unscrewed the fill plug. About 6 oz of oil came out. I noticed its color and translucency changed after a week of driving. It was noticeably darker. About 150 miles. But to me it means that synthetic stuff cleans the dirt and residue that was left there from my old conventional oil. I might need to do another differential change shortly then I expected. But after that second change - I would leave it alone for a loooong time....
I will buy more
