Force Control Industries introduced a new private label transmission fluid, which the company says is engineered specifically for oil shear applications. This type F automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is formulated using premium base oils, which the company says it used for thermal stability, viscosity characteristics, and their ability to withstand harsh operating environments. It is then enriched with a proprietary mix of additives to provide anti-wear protection, oxidation resistance, and viscosity control, to increase efficiency of the components and extend their service life.
“We formulated our private label ATF Type F product specifically for the demanding environment that our products are used in,” said Force Control Engineering Manager Keith Kincaid. “Magnashear Brakes, Posistop brakes, and Posidyne clutch-brakes can actuate up to 300 cycles per minute, with precise positioning every cycle. This engineered ATF helps keep all components lubricated and working smoothly while dissipating heat without breaking down.”
Force Control says ATF Type F is ideal for use with all of Force Control’s oil shear products.
