Performance Gear Oil for Extreme Pressure

Driving through the desert requires endurance from the vehicle, rider or driver and the lubricants to enable the vehicle to keep carry on. Bashing through dunes, racing against competitiors and simply making it to the finish after 12 stages and over 4500 miles is no small feat.

The Dakar Rally is one of the most extreme endurance events on the planet and proves to be one of the ultimate testing grounds of endurance. Motul has been a partner of the Dakar Rally since 2018, sponsoring teams and supporting them with high quality fluids and lubricants.

To ensure teams that are racing at the Dakar Rally can track the health of their vehicles as well as their progress, Motul takes the Racing Laboratory. Inside the laboratory, oil samples are tested from the engines and gearboxes of the competing vehicles to ensure that there are no underlying wear issues or signs of failing components within the vehicles.

Motul Gear Competition

Motul Competition 75W-140 Gear Oil is one of the lubricants which has been formulated to cope with the extreme demands and pressure that gearboxes are peut under during these events. The fully synthetic formulation for systems with limited slip has a 0% shear loss. That means that when there are extreme pressures, oil pressure will not drop and the system will be effectively lubricated to avoid any component failures and seizing. The high extremely high 140 grade means Competition performance gear oil can withstand extremely high temperatures, providing lubrication when gearboxes need it most. 

Gear Competition gives confidence to the person behind the wheel as a high quality gearbox oil that can be trusted to deal with pressure and the demands of a performance gearbox.
