Features and Benefits

Today's technology has vastly improved the performance capabilities of heavy-duty off-highway equipment in terms of load, speed, control, and performance through innovative drivetrain designs. These designs have increased the requirements of drivetrain fluids to deliver higher performance, increased productivity, and reduced operating costs. For heavy-duty transmissions, friction control, wear protection, thermal stability, shear stability, rust and corrosion protection, and seal compatibility are features that must be optimally balanced to provide extended gear and synchroniser life, smooth shift control, fuel economy, and high load capability over a wide range of applications. Mobiltrans AST delivers exceptional performance in today's power train components including haul truck final drives with year-round application. The key benefits include:
