STOP DRAINING PROFITS

 

 After years of TranSynd™ synthetic transmission fluid usage in all sorts of Allison automatic transmission applications, it has proven to exceed original requirements and expectations.

 

 Depending on the vocation and duty cycle, extended drain interval guidelines for TranSynd™ are up to 300,000 miles/48 months/6,000 hours for general duty and up to 150,000 miles/48 months/6,000 hours for severe duty.

 

 Compare that to recommended drain intervals for conventional transmission fluid – 25,000 miles/12 months for general duty and 12,000 miles/6 months for severe duty. 

 

 Purely remarkable endurance

 

 Conventional transmission fluids have performance additives blended in – friction modifiers, anti-wear agents, antioxidants, dispersants, detergents, rust/corrosion inhibitors, seal swell agents, anti-formants and more. But, because the base fluid is petroleum, conventional fluids do not provide the thermal resistance of TranSynd™. 

 

 With extended use, petroleum based fluids react to oxidation much faster and more detrimentally, overwhelming the effectiveness of the dispersants and detergents. The oil thickens and becomes more acidic. Mechanical stress leads to shear, resulting in permanent viscosity loss. Thinner oil means less lubrication. Sludge and varnish deposits erode shift quality and clutch durability, causing increased component wear.

 

 TranSynd™, on the other hand, is formulated from pure synthetic lubricants with inherent thermal and viscosity advantages. Performance additives are then tailored to the unique molecular structure and excellent antioxidant properties, resulting in a lubricant that is far more chemically and physically stable than other oils and virtually imperious to shear.

 

 Nothing protects better

 

 The fluid in an Allison Automatic is more than just a lubricant; it’s a critical component of the transmission. It literally transmits energy between the engine and driveshaft, removes heat, lubricates, enhances seals, protects, and acts to maintain constant friction properties between friction plates and reaction plates. TranSynd™ fulfills all of these functions far better than conventional automatic transmission fluids.

 

 

 

Liquid asset

 

 By greatly extending drain intervals, TranSynd™ helps lower the costs for maintenance and downtime. You save on the cost of transmission fluid, replacement filters, the disposal and liability of used fluid. Most importantly, you benefit from reduced wear, better performance and longer service life from your Allison Automatic. Bottom line: the superior lubricating protection of TranSynd™ results in even greater productivity and lower operating expenses.
