Product Description
Superflo ATF D/M provides the excellent oxidation and friction stability,
anti-wear properties, and low-temperature fluidity desired for most automatic
transmissions.
Features and Benefits
Advantages offered by Superflo ATF D/M over transmission fluids of lower
quality are:
- Excellent oxidation stability — resists chemical deterioration over long service periods.
- High viscosity index — retains adequate lubricating body for severe hot-weather service without thickening excessively at low starting temperatures.
- Corrosion prevention — provides protection against rusting and corrosion, plus special protection for soldered fittings.
- Foaming resistance — contains an effective anti-foaming agent.
- Elastomer compatibility — is not harmful to synthetic rubber seal materials.
- Good lubricating characteristics — gives quiet operation, smooth shifting, and excellent wear protection.
- Controlled friction properties — transmission of power is smooth and efficient throughout all normal temperature ranges.
Applications
Superflo ATF D/M is recommended by ExxonMobil for use in 2005 and earlier GM
vehicles. Mobil DEXRON-VI ATF is recommended for 2006 and newer GM vehicles
and for improved performance in 2005 and earlier GM vehicles, wherever DEXRON
is specified. Superflo ATF D/M is also recommended by ExxonMobil for use in
1988 and newer Fords, except vehicles that require MERCON V or Type F ATF.
Superflo ATF D/M meets the transmission fluid requirements for Allison
automatic transmissions and other heavy-duty equipment that requires a
Dexron-III fluid. It is suitable for use in applications requiring an Allison
C-4 specified fluid and therefore can be used in Allison Powershift
transmissions or other torque converter. It is also recommended for
Caterpillar TO-2 applications. Superflo ATF D/M is recommended for power
steering units where the manufacturer recommends a Dexron or Mercon fluid.
Many car makers recommend against the use of automatic transmission fluids
and, instead, require the use of their own power steering fluids to provide
maximum hose life and to minimize pump squeal and wear.
Superflo ATF D/M also can be used as the lubricating oil in several types of
rotary air compressors under certain service conditions. Its low-temperature
properties and resistance to oxidation are important factors in meeting the
requirements of this service.
Good maintenance practice dictates that automatic transmissions be checked for
proper fluid levels at regular intervals, and that the fluid be drained and
replaced at intervals recommended by the manufacturer. Some manufacturers
recommend more frequent changes of transmission fluid under severe driving
conditions such as those that occur in heavy traffic, in hot weather, or when
pulling a trailer.
