CHEVRON RPM® SYNTHETIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
SAE 50
CUSTOMER BENEFITS
Chevron RPM Synthetic Transmission Fluid delivers
value through:
• Extended drain capabilities — Proven field performance
for on-highway drain intervals of 500,000 miles
and greater.
• Excellent thermal and oxidation stability — The
synthetic hydrocarbon base oil used in this product
provides outstanding stability.
• A high viscosity index and low pour point —
The performance of the synthetic hydrocarbon base
stock provides extremely broad operating temperature
ranges when compared with conventional mineral oil
based lubricants.
• Protection against gear wear and copper corrosion
— The unique additive package can protect
gears without using the “active sulfur” agents commonly
found in automotive axle oils. This results in
little to no corrosion and long life for copper-containing
parts, such as oil coolers, bushings, and thrust washers.
FEATURES
Chevron RPM Synthetic Transmission Fluid is a heavy
duty truck manual transmission fluid.
It is manufactured from synthesized hydrocarbon base
fluids which have excellent thermal and oxidation stability,
a high natural viscosity index, and a low pour point.
Chevron RPM Synthetic Transmission Fluid's outstanding
low temperature flow properties and natural high viscosity
index provides superior all-climate, year-round
performance in heavy duty truck transmissions. Its use
permits easier shifting in extremely cold weather and
less drag and gear wear during startup.
APPLICATIONS
Chevron RPM Synthetic Transmission Fluid is recommended
for factory and service fill of heavy duty manual
transmissions, such as those manufactured by Eaton,
ArvinMeritor, and Mack.
This product is not recommended for use as an engine
crankcase oil.
Chevron RPM Synthetic Transmission Fluid
• meets the performance requirements of:
— API Service Category MT-1
— ArvinMeritor O-81
• is approved for the Eaton Transmission Division
PS-164 (750,000 mile extended warranty, with
500,000-mile drain)
