Red Line 75W140 GL-5 Full Synthetic Gear Oil | 75W-140 | 1 Quart | 57914
Red Line 75W140 GL-5 Full Synthetic Gear Oil – 75W-140 | 1 Quart
Protect your high-performance differential with Red Line 75W140 — a full synthetic, polyol ester-based 75W-140 gear oil exceeding API GL-5 specifications. Engineered for heavily-loaded hypoid differentials, high-horsepower applications, and clutch-type limited slip differentials, Red Line 75W140 delivers exceptional thermal stability, shear resistance, and EP protection under the extreme heat and load conditions of track days, drag launches, and high-torque street builds.
Note: This formula contains friction modifiers — suitable for most clutch-type LSDs but not recommended for most manual transmissions, where friction modifiers can harm synchronizer function. For manual transmission use, see Red Line 75W140NS.
Key Features
- API GL-5+ Rated: Exceeds GL-5 specifications with robust extreme pressure (EP) additives for maximum protection of heavily-loaded ring and pinion hypoid gears
- Full Synthetic Polyol Ester Base: Polyol ester base stocks deliver phenomenal thermal stability and superior shear resistance compared to conventional synthetic gear oils — maintains protective film even when fluid temperatures spike during track use
- LSD Compatible: Contains sufficient friction modifiers to silence chatter and ensure optimal lock-up in most clutch-type limited slip differentials — often eliminating the need for separate LSD additives
- Extreme Temperature Range: Protective film maintained at high operating temperatures while remaining fluid down to -45°C / -49°F for cold-start protection
- Reduced Operating Temperatures: Ester base stocks and friction modifier package reduce sliding friction in hypoid gears, lowering differential operating temperatures and extending component life
- Broad OEM Compatibility: Meets or exceeds BMW SAF-XJ, Ford WSS-M2C940-A, and other heavy-duty GL-5 differential specifications
