PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and
Equipment Grease (GPTR1, GPTR2) delivers
excellent wear protection and
extreme-pressure performance over extended
service intervals in medium- and heavy-duty
applications. It combines select base oils,
proprietary synthetic polymeric chemistry,
an advanced additive package and a
lithium-complex thickener for excellent
impact resistance, reliable contaminant
control and maximum longevity.
Extreme Impact
Resistance
Greasable components on heavy-duty trucks and
equipment regularly operate in severe-service,
extreme-pressure environments. Frequent
high-load operation increases the potential for
grease to pound out, which can leave components
vulnerable to increased wear and corrosion.
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
formulated to deliver maximum pound-out
resistance. Its exceptional adhesion and
cohesion properties help keep the grease in
place to seal out water and contaminants and
provide a protective barrier between metal
components.
Long Service Life
Most trucking companies work to maximize the
amount of time tractors are on the road, and
inferior greases are not engineered to perform
over extended service intervals. The long
intervals truckers demand can result in
components being left unprotected because the
grease has squeezed out of place. AMSOIL Truck,
Chassis and Equipment Grease is engineered to
remain intact for maximum protection over
extended service intervals. Owners/operators
can be assured their equipment is protected
when the job demands additional time on the
road between maintenance checks.
Superior Rust and Corrosion
Protection
Over-the-road trucks and commercial equipment
operate in all types of weather. Water, snow
and ice are encountered regularly, and they
combine with salt and other road-deicing
chemicals to promote accelerated rust and
corrosion on chassis and fifth-wheel
components. AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment
Grease clings tenaciously to metal surfaces,
helping to keep rain, snow and other corrosive
contaminants from penetrating greasable
components. It is formulated with an advanced
additive package designed to combat the harmful
effects of roadway contaminants, helping
components last longer and saving fleets
money.
Maximum Extreme-Pressure
Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and
Equipment Grease is engineered for maximum
protection in extreme-pressure applications. It
features a sophisticated additive package and
exclusive synthetic polymeric technology
designed to provide long-term protection for
heavily loaded components. AMSOIL Truck,
Chassis and Equipment Grease’s high Timken OK
Load and excellent Four-Ball Weld Test results
prove its superior performance in
extreme-pressure environments.
Ideal for Fleets
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
ideal for mixed fleets that operate in severe
service. It provides exceptional protection and
long service life for a broad range of
applications.
Cost-Effective Choice
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease
offers enhanced protection for extended
component life, reducing replacement costs. In
addition, its long service life reduces the
need for frequent re-application (or requires
less grease at each servicing), reducing
maintenance costs.
Reduced Environmental
Impact
Less-tenacious greases are ejected from greased
components and pollute the surrounding
environment. AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and
Equipment Grease is formulated to stay in place
for long service intervals, resulting in less
grease pollution and reduced grease
consumption. In addition, AMSOIL Truck, Chassis
and Equipment Grease is formulated without the
use of barium, chlorine, antimony or sulfur,
which are all potentially harmful to the
environment.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and
Equipment Grease is recommended for heavy-duty
over-the-road tractors and trailers, delivery
fleets, dump trucks, refuse haulers, utility
fleets, emergency service vehicles, sewer and
septic trucks, snow removal vehicles, wreckers,
municipal service vehicles, equipment haulers,
cement mixer trucks, airport support vehicles
and more.
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Grease provides
exceptional performance in heavily loaded
chassis grease points, wheel bearings, axle
assemblies, universal joints, pivot pins,
fifth-wheel hitch plates, steering linkages,
spring pins, king pins, ball joints, water pump
bearings and other greased heavy-duty
components.
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and
Equipment Grease is compatible with many other
types of grease. However, it is recommended
that when changing greases, the equipment be
cleaned of the old grease or flushed with a
liberal amount of AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric
Grease while the mechanism is in operation.
Closely monitor the system for any
inconsistencies. Any grease compatibility
questions should be referred to your AMSOIL
Dealer or AMSOIL INC.
*Note: AMSOIL Synthetic Polymeric Grease is
designed to remain in place for long service
intervals. The same properties that provide its
enhanced tenacity can also make it harder to
pump. A heavy follower plate may be necessary
when pumping grease from larger package sizes.
AMSOIL Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease is
not recommended for automatic or centralized
lubrication systems unless the system is
designed to pump a tackier grease.
