Synthetic CD-50

Transmission oil


Synthetic CD-50 (SAE 50) non-EP synthetic lubricant is designed to meet or exceed performance requirements for manual transmissions in over-the-road trucks and off-road heavy-duty trucks.

Features & benefits

  • Oil durability: Designed to protect transmissions against higher torque and horsepower in severe service. Improved high temperature oxidation and thermal stability results in longer oil life by minimizing sludge and varnish deposits.
  • Oil pumpability: Outstanding low temperature performance results in quicker lubrication to moving parts, less wear, and easier shifting during cold weather operation.
  • All-climate performance: Can be used year-round over wide temperature ranges eliminating the need for seasonal changes.
  • Fuel economy: Has the potential for improved fuel economy over mineral oils with its excellent cold flow properties and resistance to internal friction.
  • Reduced cost and down time: As a result of longer transmission life, reduced maintenance is needed, along with fewer oil changes.
