NS-MP HYPOID GEAR LUBRICANT

Multipurpose Automotive Gear Lubricant

Kendall® NS-MP Hypoid Gear Lubricant is a multipurpose, API GL-5 automotive gear lubricant designed for passenger car and truck axles with hypoid gear sets. This gear lubricant is also recommended for use in some heavy duty manual transmissions in trucks and buses.

Formulated to provide long service life, NS-MP Hypoid Gear Lubricant extends gear life in automotive differentials across operating conditions, speed, load, temperature, and torque. With a carefully balanced formulation, this gear lubricant minimizes oxidative sludge and varnish formation, reduces wear, prevents scoring damage, and protects your gears against metal fatigue and spalling damage under shock-load conditions.

NS-MP HYPOID GEAR LUBRICANT

Features & Benefits

  • Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability to minimize sludge and varnish formation
  • Excellent thermal durability and extreme-pressure (EP) properties for extended gear life
  • High load-carrying capacity for protection against scuffing and wear
  • Protects against rust and corrosion
  • Good foam resistance

Applications

  • Service fill of conventional differentials in passenger cars and trucks
  • Top-off only of limited-slip differentials in passenger cars and light trucks(1)
  • Service fill of differentials, final drives and transfer cases in some off-highway equipment
  • Non-synchronized manual transmissions in trucks, buses and heavy equipment where the manufacturer specifies an API GL-5 or MT-1 gear oil

    (1)Note: For complete drain and refill, many limited-slip differentials may require the manufacturer’s specified gear lubricant or supplemental additive. Refer to the owner’s manual for specific requirements.
