AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid
AMSOIL Synthetic Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION (updated 9/11/10)
AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is engineered to outperform conventional automatic transmission fluids and exceed the performance requirements of most North American, European and Asian vehicles. This sophisticated formulation provides outstanding performance and protection in the severe operating conditions of today’s most advanced transmission designs.
Automatic transmissions have become increasingly complex as vehicle manufacturers strive to improve efficiency while satisfying consumer demands. Smaller, smoother-shifting transmissions with longer fluid-life capabilities and heavier load capacities are now standard in modern transmission design. Traditional ATFs, however, are unable to meet these extreme requirements, and new fluids have emerged with each new advancement in transmission engineering.
AMSOIL first introduced a synthetic automatic transmission fluid in 1980 and remains the leader in transmission fluid quality. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF is formulated with the highest-quality synthetic fluids and additives. It exceeds the most stringent industry standards and is recommended for a wide range of transmissions. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF reduces confusion, misapplications and inventories. It eliminates the need for costly and suspect “one-treatment-covers-all” additives. The quality and performance of AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF is guaranteed.
Improves efficiency and typically reduces operating temperatures by as much as 50°F.

Fully Fortified
• Anti-wear/extreme-pressure agents (extend gear life)
• Durable friction modifiers (anti-shudder)
• Anti-oxidants (extend fluid life)
• Seal conditioners (reduce leaks)
• Detergents and dispersants (keep clean and control deposits)
• Corrosion inhibitors (control rust)
• Anti-foam agents (improve hydraulic function)
Exceptional Hot- and Cold-Temperature Performance
Thermal Stability – Hot temperatures are no excuse for poor reliability. Naturally heat resistant and heavily fortified with anti-oxidants, AMSOIL ATF exceeds the most demanding oxidation requirements. AMSOIL ATF delivers outstanding protection against sludge and varnish deposits that clog narrow oil passages and contribute to clutch
glazing. Transmissions can operate hotter and longer with AMSOIL ATF than with conventional fluids.
Cold-Temperature Fluidity – Cold, thick automatic transmission fluid lengthens shift times and reduces energy efficiency (fuel economy). AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF is waxfree and delivers extraordinary cold-flow properties (< -60°F pour point). Shifting is more responsive, energy efficiency is improved and warm-up times are reduced.
Outstanding Wear Protection
Varying speeds and loads causes torque multiplication and extreme stress on gears and bearings. To prevent wear damage consistent with low-quality fluid and ruptured fluid film, AMSOIL formulated Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF with high film strength (shear stability) and premium anti-wear/extreme-pressure additives (boundary film barrier). AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF protects transmissions during severe-duty service.
Friction Durability
Today’s transmissions are smaller and must withstand higher horsepower and torque while delivering smoother shifts, all with longer fluid life recommendations. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF is formulated with friction modifier additives that deliver outstanding clutch-holding capacity (static friction), torque-transfer ability (dynamic friction) and anti-shudder properties (slipping torque converter clutches).
Extended Fluid Service Life
Most drivers are unaware that transmissions commonly operate under severe service and require shorter fluid drain intervals. AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF is a long-life fluid capable of extended service intervals. It provides an extra margin of protection, especially when fluid change intervals are missed, during heavy use and even during abuse. Drivers can count on AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF to provide protection beyond conventional fluids.

AMSOIL ATF Maximizes Automatic Transmission Efficiency and Life
Over 40 percent of total energy loss in an automatic transmission can be attributed to the act of pumping automatic transmission fluid to the transmission’s working components during transfer of power. The mechanical efficiency of an automatic transmission is directly affected by the viscosity of the transmission fluid. When temperatures drop and cause ATF to thicken, transmission efficiency and power decline. Industry tests on torque loss demonstrate that a temperature increase of 150 degrees
F increases transmission efficiency by up to 37.5 percent.
In other words, as viscosity decreases, transmission efficiency increases.
Higher quality automatic transmission fluids can have a profound impact on transmission efficiency. Automatic
transmission fluids with lower cold temperature pumpability
properties effectively keep transmissions running efficiently during cold weather, maximizing both transmission power and fuel economy.
The Brookfield Viscosity Test gauges a transmission
fluid’s viscosity in cold temperature conditions. Current
industry specifications dictate that Brookfield Viscosity
not exceed 20,000 cP. While the average
conventional transmission fluid has a
Brookfield Viscosity of 15,000 cP, AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid far
exceeds the minimum standard with a
Brookfield Viscosity of 7,454 cP, ensuring maximum transmission efficiency and power even in the coldest winter temperatures.
AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission
Fluid exhibits outstanding oxidation
stability, preventing viscosity increase
that leads to reduced transmission efficiency
and cold temperature performance. While the use of AMSOIL ATF ensures
maximum transmission efficiency, its shear stability and premium antiwear additives also ensure superior wear protection, exceeding industry
standards in the Four-Ball Wear Test, FZG Test, Vickers
Wear Test and Falex Extreme Pressure Test.
Also meets specifications for these heavy duty units: HT754CR, HT750DRD, HT740, MT654CR, MT644, MT653, MT643 and most others.
AMSOIL ATF is popular with hundreds of city and state fleets as it reduces heat related transmission failures, improves winter performance, and because it lasts three times longer and is universal, it drastically reduces inventories. This saves taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars!
