AMSOIL Slip Lock™ Differential Additive (ADA)

Slip Lock™ Differential Additive (ADA)

Formulated with advanced friction modifier. Designed to
eliminate gear-housing chatter in cars, trucks and SUVs
equipped with limited-slip, posi-traction and locking
differentials. Formulated for use with both synthetic and
petroleum gear lubricants and safely replaces manufacturer-
recommended friction modifiers.

Package sizes include:

4-oz. Bottle
4-oz. Bottles (case of 12)

Limited-slip (or positraction) and locking differentials are traction-increasing devices. Locking
differentials transfer all available torque to both wheels. The teeth of the spider assembly engage with
those on the locker clutch, causing both axle shafts to operate as one. Locking differentials don't allow
one drive wheel to spin while the other remains stationary. Instead, they keep both wheels in drive
mode, but unlock to permit different wheel speeds when turning. The engaging and disengaging of the
teeth on automatic locking differentials often causes a banging and clunking sound. Manual locking
differentials usually use an electric motor or vacuum diaphragm to engage the locker, reducing this
noise.

Limited-slip differentials allow different wheel speeds when
turning, but when one wheel loses traction, greater torque
is transferred to the wheel offering more resistance.
Limited-slip differentials make use of friction between
clutch plates, as opposed to the meshing teeth employed
by locking differentials. Transferring less torque per side,
limited-slip differentials are generally smoother and
"chatter" when transferring torque to the wheel with
traction.

In some differential applications, a friction modifier additive
is necessary to reduce chatter. AMSOIL Slip Lock
Differential Additive is formulated with advanced friction
modifiers and is designed to eliminate gear-housing
chatter in cars, trucks and SUVs equipped with limited-slip,
positraction and locking differentials. It also reduces the
banging and clunking associated with automatic locking
differentials.

NOTE: AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lubes do not require the use of this additive. However, not all
differentials respond the same and if chatter is noticed, the addition of AMSOIL Slip Lock will
eliminate it. For chattering differentials not running AMSOIL Gear Lube, this product is an
excellent solution to the problem.
