VALVOLINE

VALVOLINE VV825 1 qt Gear Oil Drip Can accessory

SKU CH-WAV1-SR91R

Holds one quart of 85W-140 gear oil with API GL-5 rating and 103 viscosity index

  • API GL-5 rated for heavy-duty gear protection
  • 85W-140 viscosity handles extreme temperature ranges
  • High 103 viscosity index maintains film strength
  • 390 °F flash point adds safety margin
  • Low 5 °F pour point ensures cold-weather flow

VALVOLINE VV825 Gear Oil Drip Can

The VALVOLINE VV825 is a one-quart drip can filled with gear oil for automotive drivetrain lubrication. It suits mechanics and DIY owners servicing differentials or manual transmissions requiring heavy-viscosity fluid. The amber fluid meets API GL-5 standards for extreme-pressure protection. This accessory simplifies targeted pouring during maintenance intervals.

SAE 85W-140 viscosity grade

The oil carries an SAE 85W-140 viscosity grade and a viscosity index of 103, defining its flow behaviour across temperature ranges. This single specification determines whether the fluid matches the service manual requirement for a given axle or gearbox. The pour point is 5 degrees F and the flash point is 390 degrees F. Specific gravity measures .904 for reference.

Drip can allows controlled pouring

The drip-can design allows controlled pouring directly into fill ports without a separate pump or funnel. Its narrow spout reduces spillage on hot components and tight clearances. Users should verify the 85W-140 grade matches the vehicle specification before use. Overfilling or mixing with different viscosity grades is the common error to avoid.

Questions about this item

What does the SAE 85W-140 viscosity grade mean once the oil is in a differential?

The 85W rating allows flow at low temperatures while the 140 rating maintains a thick protective film at high operating temperatures in heavy-duty gear sets.

Which API standard does this gear oil meet and what does it cover in practice?

It meets API GL-5, the standard for hypoid gears under high-speed shock and low-speed high-torque conditions found in many rear axles.

What container size and closure does the VV825 use for pouring?

It comes in a 1 qt bottle with a drip-can spout designed for controlled pouring into fill holes without a separate funnel.
