2. Gear oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_oil

   The viscometrics for gear oils are standardized in SAE J306. Multigrade gear oils are becoming more common; while gear oil does not reach the temperatures of motor oil, it does warm up appreciably as the car is driven, due mostly to shear friction (with a small amount of heat conduction through the bellhousing from the engine block).

3. Extreme pressure additive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_pressure_additive

   Methylenebis(dibutyldithiocarbamate) is an additive in some extreme pressure gear oils, serving as an antioxidant and protecting metal surfaces. [1] The early extreme pressure additives were based on lead salts of fatty acids ("lead soaps"), "active sulfur" compounds (e.g. thiols and elementary sulfur), and chlorinated compounds.

4. SAE J306 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J306

   SAE J306 is a standard that defines the viscometric properties of automotive gear oils.It is maintained by SAE International. [1] Key parameters for this standard are the kinematic viscosity of the gear oil, the maximum temperature at which the oil has a viscosity of 150,000 cP, and a measure of its shear stability through the KRL test.

5. SAE J300 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J300

   The SAE has a separate viscosity rating system for gear, axle, and manual transmission oils, SAE J306, which should not be confused with engine oil viscosity. The higher numbers of a gear oil (e.g., 75W-140) does not mean that it has higher viscosity than an engine oil 20W-50.

6. NAPA Auto Parts - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAPA_Auto_Parts

   The National Automotive Parts Association (NAPA, also known as NAPA Auto Parts), is an American retailers' cooperative distributing automotive replacement parts, accessories, and service items throughout North America. Established in 1925, NAPA is a division of Atlanta-based Genuine Parts Company.

7. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   An oil pump, a vane or gear pump powered by the engine, pumps the oil throughout the engine, including the oil filter. Oil filters can be a full flow or bypass type. In the crankcase of a vehicle engine, motor oil lubricates rotating or sliding surfaces between the crankshaft journal bearings (main bearings and big-end bearings) and rods ...

8. Oil Pollution Act of 1990 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_Pollution_Act_of_1990

   By October 1993, 93% of all oil and natural gas exploration and drilling were from independent producers. Of these new exploration projects, approximately 85% of drilling operations were in the Gulf of Mexico. The independent oil producers generated nearly 40% of the crude oil in the United States and 60% of domestic natural gas.
