Overview
HiTEC® 3488 multifunctional additive package is designed for formulating both continuously variable transmission and step-type automatic transmission fluids—the first of its kind! It delivers exceptional performance in standard tests for CVTF and ATF specifications. When blended with a suitable API Group III base oil, it has proven performance in JASO M315 test requirements and in steel-on-steel friction and wear in the CVT belt box test, as well as a comprehensive program that includes vehicles, dynamometers, and rig tests. HiTEC® 3488 additive combines torque capacity and anti-shudder performance to deliver longer-lasting, premium transmission fluids. Oil marketers benefit from an all-in-one solution that can increase warehouse storage and reduce inventory, operational costs, and blending mistakes. Drivers can feel safer and more comfortable with a transmission fluid that provides smoother shifting, less noise and vibration, and longer transmission life.

Problems Solved
Historically, oil marketers were required to source separate additives to blend CVT and AT fluid due to the different frictional requirements within the transmissions. This led to higher operational costs, more inventory, blending mistakes, and misapplication. Additionally, ineffective transmission lubricant can lead to several issues for drivers, including transmission shudder and slip, noise and vibration, belt wear and damage, short fluid life, and costly repairs.
