Durability Of Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid

The durability of synthetic automatic transmission fluid will be discussed in this article.
The internal design of an automatic transmission is the most intricate of puzzles, full of imperative metal parts pressed together by tiny springs and extremely thin, snap rings. Containing numerous clutches, gears, shafts, springs, and fluid passages, this intricate design transmits the energy produced by the vehicle's engine to the wheels with smooth shifts or speed changes. It is by far the most complex of all vehicle components and often, the most expensive to repair, as well. Each of these many parts are subject to excessive wear from frictions, extreme temperatures, and very often, habitual, driver abuse. There should be no surprise, then, in considering the complexity and durability of the fluid used for the protection of this complex component. Synthetic automatic transmission fluid provides the most superior protection for an automatic transmission because of it's extreme durability and stability.
Synthetic oils are produced by chemical engineers for a molecular uniformity and stability that simply can not be found in conventional, petroleum based mineral oils. Traditional oils are refined from crude oil, and the molecules produced are of different shape, size, and type. They thin and dissipate quicker than synthetic fluids between drain intervals, leaving behind harmful byproducts and allowing unnecessary wear to occur in all vehicle applications. These adverse affects are most noticeable in the more complex, automatic transmission. Synthetic automatic transmission fluid is more durable and stable, and it will protect the clutch packs inside an automatic transmission from losing their friction face materials during use. It is better designed for it's necessary hydraulic purposes, as well. Synthetic fluids are very additive rich which helps in lowering friction levels and keeping internal metal parts cleaner during use. This helps them to resist oxidation better, prevent varnish and sludge from building up over time, and promote better performance.
The durability of synthetic automatic transmission fluid elongates component life by better protecting it's internal parts and, therefore, saves consumers money that would be spent in unnecessary or premature part repairs. "Torque Drive," Amsoil's special, synthetic automatic transmission fluid, is one very good example of a durably superior lubricant and protecting fluid for automatic transmissions. It can be used in most vehicle applications for better shear, thermal, and oxidative stability, friction durability, and extreme temperature performance. Like other synthetic fluids, "Torque Drive" will account for all deficiencies found in petroleum based oils, extending drain intervals, and saving consumers money from fewer repairs and better performance.
Automatic transmissions are the most complex of all vehicle components. They are filled with several, tiny fluid passages, dozens of clutches, gears, and shafts, and other intricate metal parts that are subject to intensive wear and oxidation during use. The protection of these parts by the more durable synthetic automatic transmission fluid provides an incomparable, performance superiority over conventional, mineral based fluids.
