SHP® SYNTHETIC MTF

Premium Full Synthetic, Fuel-Efficient Heavy-Duty Manual Transmission Fluid, API MT-1, Eaton PS-386 Approved

Kendall® SHP Synthetic MTF (Manual Transmission Fluid) is a full synthetic, fuel-efficient transmission lubricant designed for use in heavy-duty commercial manual transmissions operating in extreme temperatures and/or extended service intervals. It combines outstanding low-temperature properties without standing oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures to provide excellent all-climate, year-round performance. It provides improved fuel efficiency of up to 1.5% compared with previous-generation SAE 50 manual transmission fluids.

SHP® SYNTHETIC MTF

Features & Benefits

  • Extended drain, all-season performance
  • Outstanding oxidation resistance and thermal stability to minimize sludge and varnish formation
