Overview
HiTEC® 355 premium performance additive is intended for formulating extended-drain, heavy-duty gear axle fluids. It exhibits excellent rust and corrosion inhibition to protect gear surfaces. The additive demonstrates exceptional oxidative and heat stability to prevent fluid degradation and extend drain intervals. Additionally, it is engineered with cold flow improvers for better cold temperature performance and antifoam chemistry to sustain lubricant performance. HiTEC® 355 additive has wide compatibility across various base oil types, including synthetic base stock.
Lubricants properly formulated using HiTEC® 355 additive in a suitable base oil can meet or exceed industry specifications, such as the following:
Meritor O-76Q
Mack GO-J
SAE J 2360 (MIL-PRF-2105E)
API GL-5 and MT-1

Features & Benefits
- Enhanced protection against rust and corrosion
- Highly stable; will not separate in the presence of heat or water
- Effectively inhibits oxidation and resists seal deterioration from heat
- Outstanding antifoam protection
- Excellent cold temperature performance
- Compatible with synthetic and mineral oil base stocks
Problems Solved
Heavy-duty axle oils experience high loads and demanding conditions that can cause lubricant degradation and deposit buildup. These deposits can dirty the lubricant and gear tooth surfaces, shortening fluid life and drain intervals and potentially resulting in part damage. Without proper additives, poorly formulated axle oils can become unstable under high heat or separate due to water exposure.
