Bharat Petroleum Corporation (BPCL) has reportedly launched a specially formulated lubricant - Universal Tractor Transmission Oil - in the Punjab and Haryana market, one of the most promising markets for tractor manufacturers. The company is further planning to roll out the product across India in the next six months.
Considering the evolution in technology, the company has launched MAK Trac Magic +, which is a 3-in-1 universal tractor transmission oil that has been specially designed to meet the challenging lubrication requirements of transmission, differential and final drive gears, hydraulic and wet brake systems and it ensures peak performance of a tractor under all operating conditions.
The company had carried extensive field trials for two years in 10 farm tractors of different makes, fitted with wet-brake (OIB) system. Trials were carried out in Ambala and Hyderabad. At the end of the field trials, physico-chemical properties and wear metals were well within rejection limits which indicated better over-all performance of the new product in field conditions.
