Revise SAE J2360 to move all technical requirements from PD4000 (Gear Lubricant Review Program is the procedural document that species the procedure to submit candidate lubricants to the Review Committee for approval against SAE J2360 requirements)
J2360
Update “2. References” to include PD4000
Update “3. Requirements” by moving and merging the following from PD4000:
2.1 Chemical and Physical Properties Requirements
2.2 Bench Test Requirements
2.3 Laboratory Performance Test Requirements
2.4 Supporting Field Test Performance Requirements
Update “A.2 Tolerances” by moving and merging PD4000 Section 3.18
Rationale: Technical requirements for SAE J2360 should be contained in a single document to avoid and confusion or contradicting information. A procedural document shouldn’t have technical requirements.
