Why customers choose NorthTrail Auto

Royal Purple Synchromax is a synthetic light‑viscosity transmission fluid engineered to improve manual shift quality, reduce gear noise, and protect synchronizers, transfer cases, and motorcycle gearboxes.

Designed for manual gearboxes that call for automatic transmission fluid or other thin oils, Synchromax brings Royal Purple's proprietary Synerlec additive chemistry to driveline applications. It blends synthetic base stocks with friction‑compatible additives to deliver smoother shifts across temperature ranges, resist oxidation and corrosion, and provide wear protection without harming soft synchronizer metals.

How does Synchromax improve shifting behavior?

Synchromax uses Synerlec additive technology to modulate friction characteristics so synchronizers engage more smoothly and consistently. That results in crisper, quieter shifts whether the gearbox is cold or warmed up, reducing shift effort and the tendency for grinding.

  • Synthetic base stocks stabilize viscosity across temperatures
  • Synerlec additives fine‑tune friction for smooth synchronizer engagement
  • Reduces shift noise and harshness during gear changes

Will this fluid work with my vehicle’s synchronizers and soft metals?

Yes — Synchromax is formulated to be fully compatible with a wide range of friction materials and soft metals commonly used in manual synchronizers. It provides corrosion protection and resists oxidation without altering the frictional properties that synchronizers rely on.

  • Safe for brass and other soft synchronizer metals
  • Maintains consistent frictional performance over time
  • Oxidation inhibitors protect fluid life and component surfaces

Can I use Synchromax in transfer cases and motorcycle gearboxes?

Absolutely — the product is recommended for transfer cases and two‑stroke motorcycle gearboxes that specify light‑viscosity lubricants or automatic transmission fluids. Its low viscosity and protective chemistry make it suitable where thinner fluids are required for proper gear engagement.

  • Meets requirements for many transfer case applications
  • Compatible with 2‑cycle motorcycle gearboxes specifying light oils
  • Provides wear protection in tight‑tolerance gear sets

What kind of protection and packaging details should I expect?

Synchromax delivers enhanced wear protection and corrosion resistance while resisting thermal breakdown. The product ships in a 1‑quart (32 ounce) container; package dimensions and weight are compact for easy storage and handling.

  • Greater wear protection for gears and synchronizers
  • Package dimensions: 28.575 H x 8.636 L x 8.89 W cm
  • Package weight: 0.839 kg — United States origin

Who is this for? Royal Purple Synchromax is aimed at mechanics, enthusiast drivers, and riders who need a reliable, synthetic light‑viscosity fluid for manual transmissions, transfer cases, and two‑stroke motorcycle gearboxes that call for ATF‑style or thin lubricants. It suits vehicles where improved shift feel, reduced gear noise, and long‑term protection of synchronizers and gears are priorities. Always check your equipment manufacturer's fluid specification before use to confirm compatibility.

FAQ

Q: Is Synchromax compatible with manual transmissions specifying ATF?

A: Yes. Synchromax is formulated for manuals that call for automatic transmission fluid or other light‑viscosity oils.

Q: Can I use this in a motorcycle gearbox?

A: Yes. It is suitable for many two‑stroke motorcycle gearboxes that require light‑viscosity lubricants.
