The two new gear lube viscosities were specially formulated for off-road truck racing Truck racing is a form of motor racing that involves modified versions of heavy trucks on racing circuits. This type of racing is popular in Europe. For the American version of pickup truck racing, see the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. For the Brazilian series, see Fórmula Truck. , rock racing, rock crawling Rock crawling is an extreme form of off road driving using vehicles anywhere from stock to highly modified to overcome obstacles.

 racing applications that require heavier viscosity gear lubricants. AMSOIL Severe Gear gear lubes feature an exclusive blend of high viscosity, shear stable synthetic base oils and an extra treatment of high-performance additives. They are engineered to protect gears better than conventional gear oils, resisting acid, carbon and varnish formation and oxidative breakdown.

AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic SAE 190 and SAE 250 Gear Lubricants are premium grade, extreme pressure gear lubes engineered specifically for the demands of severe racing conditions. They are formulated with shear stable, heavy synthetic base oils for high film strength. Their synthetic formulations provide improved flow over conventional oils, reducing viscous drag and power loss. AMSOIL proprietary extreme pressure additives form an iron-sulfide barrier coating on gear surfaces for the ultimate line of defense against wear, pitting and scoring.

Applications and Service Life

AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic SAE 190 and SAE 250 Gear Lubricants are recommended for use in hypoid A hypoid is the name given to a type of helical (spiral) gear. The main application of this is in a motor vehicle differential, where the direction of the drive carried by the propeller shaft (drive shaft) has to be turned through 90 degrees in order to power the driven wheels.  gear differentials and other applications requiring a high viscosity, API GL-5 gear lube. Where limited slip performance is required, use AMSOIL Slip-Lock[R] limited slip additive. Change Severe Gear SAE 190 and SAE 250 Gear Lubes as conditions dictate. Where extended drain intervals are desired, monitor by oil analysis.

AMSOIL has been the recognized leader in synthetic lubrication lubrication, introduction of a substance between the contact surfaces of moving parts to reduce friction and to dissipate heat. A lubricant may be oil, grease, graphite, or any substance—gas, liquid, semisolid, or solid—that permits free action of  since 1972.
