This SAE Recommended Practice was developed by SAE, and the section "Standard Classification and Specification for Service Greases" cooperatively with ASTM, and NLGl. It is intended to assist those concerned with the design of automotive components, and with the selection and marketing of greases for the lubrication of certain of those components on passenger cars, trucks, and buses. The information contained herein will be helpful in understanding the terms related to properties, designations, and service applications of automotive greases.

This SAE Standard is intended for equipment manufacturers in defining and recommending axle and manual transmission lubricants, for oil marketers in labeling such lubricants with respect to viscosity, and for users in following their owner’s manual recommendations. The SAE viscosity grades shown in Table 1 constitute a classification for axle and transmission lubricants in terms of viscosity only; the change in viscosity with use, or other gear lubricant qualities, are not considered.
This SAE Information Report was prepared by the SAE Fuels and Lubricants Technical Committee for two purposes: (a) to assist the users of automotive equipment in the selection of axle1 and manual transmission lubricants for field use, and (b) to promote a uniform practice for use by marketers of lubricants and by equipment builders in identifying and recommending these lubricants by a service designation.
