SYNTHETIC TRANSMISSION LUBRICANT

CD SAE 50

Scope:

A specially formulated synthetic lubricant designed for extended drain


and severe service in heavy duty manual transmissions which require a
straight mineral oil (non EP) MIL-L-2104D or MIL-L-46152B engine
lubricant.

This lubricant is formulated from a synthetic basestock having a high


viscosity index, low pour point, and sub-zero fluid flow. It also
contains an anti-wear additive as well as rust, oxidation and corrosion
inhibitors.

CD SAE 50 synthetic lubricant provides:

all-climate, year round performance


improved component protection
easier cold weather shifting
potential for fuel economy
