Caltex Delo Gear EP 5 SAE 140 – Extreme Pressure Heavy-Duty Gear Lubricant (3L)

Caltex Delo Gear EP 5 SAE 140 is a high-performance, multipurpose gear lubricant designed for use in heavy-duty automotive gears, axles, and final drives. Formulated with high-quality base oils and a balanced Extreme Pressure (EP) additive system, it provides robust protection against gear wear and scuffing in high-load conditions.

This 3L pack is ideal for light commercial vehicles, trucks, and agricultural machinery requiring a high-viscosity (SAE 140) lubricant that meets the API GL-5 performance standard.

Typical Applications:

• Automotive hypoid gear differentials operating under high speed/low torque or low speed/high torque.

• Heavy-duty manual transmissions and steering gears.

• Agricultural and construction equipment.

Key Benefits

1. Maximum Gear Protection

The Extreme Pressure (EP) additives provide a tough molecular film that protects gear teeth against pitting, scoring, and wear, even under shock-load conditions.

2. Long Equipment Life

By reducing friction and preventing metal-to-metal contact, this oil significantly extends the life of the differential and gearbox components, saving you money on expensive repairs.

3. Resistance to Thickening

The oxidation-stable formula resists oil thickening and the formation of harmful sludge and varnish. This ensures the oil maintains its protective viscosity throughout the entire service interval.

4. Corrosion and Rust Inhibition

It contains specialized inhibitors that protect steel and copper-based components from rust and corrosion, which is vital for vehicles operating in humid or wet environments.

5. High Viscosity Performance

The SAE 140 grade provides a thicker oil film, making it excellent for older machinery or heavy-duty applications where high temperatures and heavy loads are the norm.
