There are two main types of manual transmissions (MTs): synchronized and non-synchronized. Non-synchronized transmissions are more common in North America commercial and off-highway vehicle applications, where as synchronization is commonly found in passenger car and light duty trucks.

Now entering the market is a hybrid in the commercial trucking industry called an Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) driven by better fuel economy targets, increasing the driver availability pool and safer operations by elimination of the manual clutch.

The focus on driver comfort and premium fluids has improved the designs of today's transmissions across the below criteria:

• Shift

• Feel

• Fill-for-life capability (passenger car/light truck) including: Extended Drain Intervals (800,000 km/500,000 miles for commercial and off-highway applications)

• High thermal stability

• Durability including:

  • –  Synchronizer friction material compatibility

  • –  Corrosion protection

  • –  High shear stability

• Improved fuel economy and efficiency

All of these have led to advancements in design and the use of a wide range of synchronizer materials or hardware design.

These changes in transmission design have led to advancements in transmission lubricant technology highlighting the importance of using a dedicated manual transmission fluid (MTF) that is matched to the frictional properties of these more complex materials.
