Transynd 668 is highly versatile, being fully backwards compatible with applications that previously required Allison TES 295® and TES 468™ specifications. This means that vehicles and equipment designed for these earlier Allison specifications can safely and effectively use Transynd 668.
Understanding Compatibility
The compatibility of Transynd 668 stems from its advanced formulation, which meets the rigorous TES 668™ specification. This specification ensures that the fluid not only performs optimally in newer systems but also offers superior benefits when used as an upgrade in systems originally designed for TES 295 or TES 468.
Key Compatibility Aspects:
- Direct Replacement: Transynd 668 can directly replace fluids meeting Allison TES 295 and TES 468 specifications without any adverse effects.
- Performance Upgrade: When used in older applications, it provides enhanced performance benefits beyond what the original fluids offered.
Benefits of Using Transynd 668
Beyond its broad compatibility, Transynd 668 offers significant improvements for a range of heavy-duty automatic transmissions. Its design focuses on extending transmission life and improving operational efficiency.
- Improved Gear Protection: The advanced formulation provides superior film strength and anti-wear properties, which significantly reduces wear on gears and other critical transmission components, leading to longer transmission life.
- Extended Anti-Shudder Durability: It enhances the fluid's ability to maintain smooth, consistent shifting performance over extended periods, preventing shudder and ensuring a comfortable ride. This durability contributes to less downtime and reduced maintenance needs.
Compatibility Overview
| Transynd 668 Compatibility | Details | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Allison TES 295® | Fully backwards compatible; can be used as a direct upgrade or replacement for fluids previously specified as TES 295. | Enhanced gear protection, extended drain intervals, smoother operation. |
| Allison TES 468™ | Fully backwards compatible; suitable for applications that originally required TES 468 fluids. | Improved anti-shudder performance, superior thermal stability, reduced wear. |
This backward compatibility makes Transynd 668 an excellent choice for fleets and operators looking to standardize their transmission fluid inventory while simultaneously upgrading the protection and performance of their vehicles across different generations of Allison automatic transmissions.
