JUN2005 1. Scope This SAE Standard defines the limits for a classification of autom

5、otive gear lubricants in rheological terms only. Other lubricant characteristics are not considered. 1.1 Rationale Two new viscosity grades were added to the viscosity classification as part of the January 2005 update. The new grades are SAE 110 (100 C viscosity between 18.5 and 24.0 cSt) and SAE 19

6、0 (100 C viscosity between 32.5 and 41.0 cST). The need for the two additional grades centered on the wide variation in kinematic viscosity possible within the prior version of J306 for SAE 90 and the SAE 140 grades. The effect of such a wide range of kinematic viscosities could result in an axle be

7、ing serviced with a lubricant that had a viscosity significantly lower or higher than the axle lubricant that the axle had been validated with, even though the same viscosity grade had been employed. OEMs may have been forced to specify a higher viscosity grade than what they may actually desire, be

8、cause the wide range of kinematic viscosities of the next lower grade could result in customers using a lubricant having too low of a kinematic viscosity. For example: An OEM would like to recommend a lubricant having a 100 C viscosity of 19.5 cSt, which according to the prior version of J306 requir

9、ements would be SAE 90. However, if the OEM had recommended a SAE 90 the actual viscosity could be as low as 13.5 cSt, which may be lower than the OEM is comfortable with. Thus, the OEM recommended a SAE 140, which ensures that the 100 C viscosity is never lower than the desired 19.5. Unfortunately,

10、 that also means that the viscosity could be as high as 41.0 cSt. Under the new limits the OEM could recommend a SAE 110 which would meet the 19.5 cSt requirement and the axle would not be serviced with anything higher in viscosity than 31 cSt. An additional change to J306 was the inclusion for the

11、use of ASTM D 3244 for resolving any disputes between laboratories as to whether a product conforms with any specification in Table 1.

16、 SAE Standard is intended for use by equipment manufacturers in defining and recommending automotive gear, axle and manual transmission lubricants, for oil marketers in labeling such lubricants with respect to their viscosity, and for users in following their owners manual recommendations. The SAE v

17、iscosity grades shown in Table 1 constitute a classification for automotive gear, axle, and manual transmission lubricants in rheological terms only. Disputes between laboratories as to whether a product conforms with any specification in Table 1 shall be resolved by application of the procedures de

18、scribed in ASTM D 3244. For this purpose, all specifications in Table 1 are critical specifications to which conformance based upon reproducibility of the prescribed test method is required. The product shall be considered to be in conformance if the Assigned Test Value (ATV) is within the specifica

Limit must also be met after testing in CEC L-45-A-99, Method C (20 hours). 5. The precision of ASTM Method

22、 D2983 has not been established for determinations made at temperatures below -40 C. This fact should be taken into consideration in any producer-consumer relationship. This classification is based on the lubricant viscosity measured at both high and low temperatures. The high-temperature kinematic

23、viscosity values are determined according to ASTM D 445, with the results reported in centistokes (cSt). The low-temperature viscosity values are determined according to ASTM D 2983 and these results are reported in centipoise (cP). These two viscosity units are related as follows in Equation 1: cSt

24、cm/g,DensitycP3= (Eq. 1) Density is measured at the test temperature. This relationship is valid for Newtonian fluids; it is an approximation for non-Newtonian fluids. High temperature viscosity is related to the hydrodynamic lubrication characteristics of the fluid. Some gear lubricants may contain

25、 high molecular weight polymers, known as viscosity modifiers or viscosity index improvers, which function to increase the viscosity of the fluids. During use, these polymers may shear to a lower molecular weight, thereby resulting in a fluid with a lower viscosity than that of the new fluid. In ord

26、er to ensure that the designated high temperature viscosity grade is retained during use, lubricants must meet the 100 C viscosity limits listed in Table 1 not only when new, but also following evaluation in CEC L-45-A-99, Viscosity Shear Stability of Transmission Lubricants, Method C (20 hours). Lo

27、w temperature viscosity requirements are related to the ability of the fluid to flow and provide adequate lubrication to critical parts under low ambient temperature conditions. The 150 000 cP viscosity value used for the definition of low-temperature properties is based on a series of tests in a sp

28、ecific rear axle design. These tests have shown that pinion bearing failure has occurred at viscosities higher than 150 000 cP and the Brookfield method was shown to give adequate precision at this viscosity level. However, it should be pointed out that other axle designs may tolerate higher viscosi

29、ties or fail at lower viscosities.

For example, shifti

30、ng ease at low temperature in light duty synchronized manual transmissions may be related to viscosity at higher shear rates than that provided by the Brookfield method. For such applications, use of the Cold Cranking Simulator (CCS) per ASTM D 5293 should be considered. A CCS viscosity of 5000 cP,

31、maximum, at -30 C may ensure satisfactory low temperature shiftability. Automotive gear lubricant SAE viscosity grades should not be confused with engine oil SAE viscosity grades. (Compare Table 1 in this report with Table 1 in SAE J300.) A gear lubricant and an engine oil having the same viscosity

32、will have widely different SAE viscosity grade designations as defined in the two viscosity classifications. For instance, an SAE 75W gear lubricant can have the same kinematic viscosity at 100 C as an SAE 10W engine oil; and an SAE 90 gear lubricant viscosity can be similar to that of an SAE 40 or

33、SAE 50 engine oil. 4. Labeling In properly describing the viscosity grade of an automotive gear lubricant according to this document, a lubricant may use one W grade numerical designation, one non-W grade numerical designation, or one W grade in combination with one non-W grade. In all cases the num

34、erical designation must be preceded by the letters “SAE”. In addition, when both a W grade and a non-W grade are listed (multigrade) the W grade shall be listed first and the two designations shall be separated by a hyphen (i.e., SAE 80W-90). Other forms of punctuation or separation are not acceptab

35、le. A lubricant which meets the requirements of both a low-temperature and a high-temperature grade is commonly known as a multiviscosity-grade lubricant. For example, an SAE 80W-90 lubricant must meet the low-temperature requirements for SAE 80W and the high-temperature requirements for SAE 90. Sin

36、ce the W grade is defined on the basis of maximum temperature for a Brookfield viscosity of 150 000 cP and minimum kinematic viscosity at 100 C, it is possible for a lubricant to satisfy the requirements of more than one W grade. In labeling either a W grade or a multiviscosity grade lubricant, only

37、 the lowest W grade satisfied may be referred to on the label. Thus a lubricant meeting the requirements of both SAE 75W and SAE 85W as well as SAE 90 would be labeled as SAE 75W-90, and not SAE 75W-85W-90. 5.
