New Extended Protection Premium Full Synthetic Gear Oil features innovative formulation that extends gear life.

LEXINGTON, Ky., Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Valvoline Global Operations, a worldwide leader in automotive and industrial solutions, today announced another innovative addition to its product portfolio: Valvoline Extended Protection Full Synthetic Gear Oil. The brand's first-ever super premium full synthetic gear oil to hit the market, the new product is proven to maximize differential life offering four times better gear wear protection when compared to Valvoline Daily Protection Gear Oil.

Valvoline Extended Protection Full Synthetic Gear Oil was developed to assist passenger car and light duty truck owners in protecting vehicle gear surfaces against extreme shock loading and high-temperature conditions which can negatively impact oil life.

Proven through rigorous L-42 standard testing, Extended Protection Full Synthetic Gear Oil offers consumers several benefits including:

• Protection against extreme temperature breakdown, shock-loading and high-torque impacts provided by innovative formulation featuring performance-enhancing additives.
• Anti-foam agents which quickly break down to provide better lubrication, faster.
• Friction modifiers to ensure optimum limited slip clutch performance.

The new formulation is available for purchase in Valvoline's patented FLEXFILL™ bag, an innovative package designed to make gear oil changes easier. Its flexible construction makes it ideal for use in compact spaces while releasing two times more fluid with less effort as compared to traditional gear oil packaging.

"We developed our new Valvoline Extended Protection Full Synthetic Gear Oil in direct response to customer feedback looking for a premium gear oil in an easy-to-use package," said Jean-Claude Duho, Technical Original Equipment Manager, Valvoline Global. "This new solution is innovative from its packaging to its formulation. It is designed to deliver outstanding protection in the most demanding conditions while optimizing gear performance and extending the life of gear components."
