Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30
Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 is a fully synthetic manual transmission lubricant engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern heavy-duty commercial vehicles. Formulated with advanced synthetic base oils and a high-performance additive system, it provides excellent protection against wear, oxidation and corrosion while delivering outstanding performance across a wide range of operating conditions. The lubricant is designed for year-round use in both on-highway and off-highway applications, particularly in environments with extreme temperature variations.
One of the key advantages of Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 is its excellent load-carrying and anti-wear performance. The advanced additive system provides strong protection for gears, bearings and synchronisers under heavy loads and severe operating conditions. This helps extend component life and ensures reliable transmission performance over extended service intervals.
Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 also offers outstanding thermal and oxidation stability. The lubricant resists degradation at high temperatures, helping prevent deposit formation and maintain clean transmission components. This contributes to longer lubricant life, reduced maintenance requirements and improved operational efficiency.
Another important benefit of Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 is its excellent frictional performance. The formulation provides stable and optimised friction characteristics, ensuring smooth and rapid gear shifting. This enhances driver comfort and supports efficient power transmission in heavy-duty vehicles.
Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 also demonstrates excellent shear stability, maintaining viscosity and film strength under severe operating conditions. This ensures consistent lubrication performance throughout the service life of the lubricant. In addition, the fluid provides outstanding low-temperature fluidity, allowing easy start-up and rapid lubrication during cold conditions, reducing wear during initial operation.
Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 is recommended for use in heavy-duty manual transmissions in trucks and buses, particularly those requiring Volvo 97307 or Volvo 97318 specifications. It is suitable for applications requiring extended service intervals and is often used alongside synthetic axle lubricants to maximise drivetrain efficiency and fuel economy. However, it is not suitable for hypoid gear applications where API GL-5 lubricants are required.
Physical characteristics include a kinematic viscosity of approximately 54 mm²/s at 40°C and 9.2 mm²/s at 100°C, with a viscosity index of around 152. Mobil Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid V30 has a density of approximately 0.85 g/ml at 15.6°C, a flash point of approximately 242°C and a pour point of approximately −51°C, supporting reliable lubrication performance across a wide range of operating conditions.
