PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

ATF DX3 serves as an automatic transmission fluid engineered for older automatic transmissions demanding Dexron® IIIH or Mercon® performance standards. Moreover, it suits transmissions necessitating other prevalent performance levels like Allison C4 and TES-389, as well as power steering, pump, and hydraulic applications. In today’s modern vehicle transmission designs, there is an increased demand for the automatic transmission fluid to meet stringent criteria. ATF DX3 is the solution that ensures dependable friction performance, stability at high temperatures, exceptional anti-wear properties, fluidity at low temperatures, and compatibility with various materials, all in alignment with current specifications.

The outstanding oxidation stability of ATF DX3, assessed through Ford ABOT tests, results in cleaner transmissions and more dependable operation. ATF DX3 effectively combats foaming tendencies in transmissions, ensuring that a consistent lubricating film is maintained across all surfaces requiring lubrication. ATF DX3 has been proven to exhibit stable friction properties in both Dexron® IIIH friction durability tests and the demanding Mercon® 20,000-cycle friction durability test.
