The present disclosure relates to a method for making a Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) from a Super Tractor Universal Oil (STUO).
1 . A method for making a Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) from a Super Tractor Universal Oil (STUO) comprising:
reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO, wherein the STUO meets the John Deere J20-C performance specification and the Ford M2C134D performance specification.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more additive components comprises one or more additives selected from the group consisting of an ashless dispersant, a detergent, a corrosion inhibitor, a friction modifier, an antioxidant, an extreme pressure agent, an antiwear agent, an antifoamant, and a defoamant.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises reducing the amount of an ashless dispersant by about 5% to about 100%.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises reducing the amount of a detergent sufficient to improve the water tolerance of the UTTO.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises reducing the amount of a detergent by about 50% to about 100%.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises a reducing the amount of a corrosion inhibitor by about 25% to about 100%.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the corrosion inhibitor is a crankcase corrosion inhibitor.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises reducing the amount of friction modifier sufficient to improve wet brake noise.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises a reducing the amount of a friction modifier by about 25% to about 100%.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of the one or more additive components comprises a reducing the amount of an antioxidant by about 25% to about 100%.
11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the antioxidant is a high temperature antioxidant.
12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of one or more additive components comprises reducing the amount of an ashless dispersant by about 5% to about 100%, the amount of a detergent by about 50% to 100%, the amount of a corrosion inhibitor by about 25% to about 100%, the amount of a friction modifier by about 25% to about 100%, and the amount of an antioxidant by about 25% to about 100%.
13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO comprises omitting the one or more additive components.
14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO comprises omitting an ashless dispersant, a detergent, and an antioxidant.
15 . A UTTO made from the method of claim 1 .
16 . The UTTO of claim 15 , wherein the STUO comprises a major amount of a base oil and a minor amount of an additive concentrate and wherein the UTTO comprises a major amount of a base oil and a minor amount of an additive concentrate, wherein the treat rate of the UTTO additive concentrate is about 40% to about 70% less than the STUO additive concentrate.
17 . Use of a UTTO made from the method of claim 1 to lubricate moving parts of a tractor.
18 . Use of a UTTO made from the method of claim 1 to lubricate one or more of or all of a transmission, a hydrostatic transmission, a gear-box, a final drive, a hydraulic system, and a wet brake of off-highway mobile equipment.
19 . Use of a UTTO made from the method of claim 1 to lubricate one or more of or all of a transmission, a hydrostatic transmission, a gear-box, a final drive, a hydraulic system, and a wet brake of construction equipment.
20 . Use of a UTTO made from the method of claim 1 to lubricate one or more of or all of a transmission, a hydrostatic transmission, a gear-box, a final drive, a hydraulic system, and a wet brake of a tractor.
21 . A method for making a Super Tractor Universal Oil comprising:
top treating a Universal Tractor Transmission Oil with an aftermarket additive package comprising one or more additives selected from the group consisting of an ashless dispersant, a detergent, a corrosion inhibitor, a friction modifier, and an antioxidant.
22 . A Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) having improved extreme pressure properties, wherein the UTTO is made from a Super Tractor Universal Oil (STUO) comprising:
reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO, wherein the STUO meets the John Deere J20-C performance specification and the Ford M2C134D performance specification.
23 . A Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) having improved brass wear properties, wherein the UTTO is made from a Super Tractor Universal Oil (STUO) comprising:
reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO, wherein the STUO meets the John Deere J20-C performance specification and the Ford M2C134D performance specification.
24 . The UTTO of claim 23 , wherein the UTTO is suitable for use in a hydrostatic transmission.
25 . A Universal Tractor Transmission Oil having (UTTO) improved friction properties, wherein the UTTO is made from a Super Tractor Universal Oil (STUO) comprising:
reducing the amount of one or more additive components in the preparation of a STUO to provide a UTTO, wherein the STUO meets the John Deere J20-C performance specification and the Ford M2C134D performance specification.
