ABRO 1 Quart GL-1 SAE 140 Gear Lube (GL-1-140-1QT)

ABRO 1 Quart GL-1 SAE 140 Gear Lube (GL-1-140-1QT) is a premium, straight mineral oil-based lubricant specifically engineered to meet the API GL-1 service classification. This high-viscosity gear oil is designed to provide reliable lubrication and protection for a range of automotive applications, particularly in manual transmissions, differentials, rear axles, and steering gear boxes where a GL-1 lubricant is recommended. Its carefully formulated composition ensures optimal performance and helps extend the lifespan of critical gear components.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• High-Temperature Resistance: The tape is specifically manufactured to withstand the extreme temperatures generated by exhaust systems, ensuring that the repair remains intact under demanding conditions.
• Aluminum Construction: The use of aluminum in its construction provides a strong and heat-resistant base for the repair.
• Special High-Temperature Bonding Agent: The tape is coated with a specialized adhesive that is designed to bond effectively to exhaust system components and maintain its adhesion even when exposed to high heat.
• Effective Leak Sealing: ABRO ER-400 is designed to create a tight and secure seal over holes and cracks in exhaust system parts, preventing the escape of exhaust gases and reducing associated noise.
• Simple Application: The tape is designed for easy application, often not requiring the removal of the exhaust component or the use of specialized tools, making it a convenient solution for quick repairs.
• Cost-Effective Repair: Using ABRO ER-400 can be a more economical alternative to replacing entire exhaust system components or seeking professional welding services for minor leaks.

HOW TO USE:

• Consult Your Vehicle’s Manual: Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations to confirm that a GL-1 SAE 140 gear oil is the correct lubricant for your specific application.
• Prepare the Vehicle: Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is turned off and has cooled down. Engage the parking brake for safety.
• Locate the Fill and Drain Plugs: Identify the fill plug and drain plug on the transmission, differential, or steering gear box where you will be adding the gear lube.
• Drain the Old Gear Lube (If Applicable): If you are replacing old gear lube, position a suitable drain pan underneath the drain plug. Remove the drain plug and allow the old lubricant to drain completely. Replace the drain plug and tighten it to the manufacturer’s specifications.
• Access the Fill Plug: Locate and remove the fill plug. This may require a wrench or socket. Ensure the area around the fill plug is clean to prevent debris from entering the system.
• Add ABRO GL-1 SAE 140 Gear Lube: Using a funnel or a gear oil pump, carefully pour ABRO GL-1 SAE 140 Gear Lube into the fill hole. Add the amount of lubricant specified in your vehicle’s manual. Be careful not to overfill.
• Check the Fluid Level: Once you have added the recommended amount, check the fluid level according to your vehicle’s manual. This is often done by checking if the lubricant reaches the bottom of the fill hole or a specific mark on a dipstick.
• Replace the Fill Plug: Once the fluid level is correct, replace the fill plug and tighten it to the manufacturer’s specifications.
• Clean Up: Clean any spills and dispose of the old gear lube properly according to local regulations.
• Test Drive (If Applicable): For transmissions and differentials, you may want to take a short test drive and then re-check the fluid level to ensure there are no leaks and the level is still correct.
