Red Line Heavy ShockProof Gear Oil is a premium ester-based synthetic gear lubricant developed for racing, off-road and high-load drivetrain applications.
It provides film thickness greater than an SAE 75W-250 gear oil with internal friction comparable to a 75W-90, offering outstanding shock-load protection and minimal drag.
Used worldwide in racing differentials, sequential gearboxes, off-road transmissions, and even motorcycle gearboxes where extreme protection is required.
Also suitable for many Harley-Davidson models, including use in the gearbox or primary chain case of Big Twin and Sportster bikes (check your owner’s manual for viscosity compatibility).
Not recommended for most synchronised car gearboxes due to its ultra-low friction formulation.
Red Line Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil is available in 1 US Quart bottles (946 ML)
Red Line ShockProof Gear Oils feature a patented suspension of microscopic solid particles within a fully synthetic ester base oil. This unique chemistry provides exceptional cushioning of metal-to-metal contact — essential for racing or heavy-duty driveline use.
Key Benefits:
