Is MT90 16 the same as 130-90-16?
First off, there’s those big numbers and letters that may read something like 130/90 16, or MT90 16. These numbers indicate the size of the tire, and the rim it’s designed to go on. In this case, these are both the same size tires. R16” where the number is is the rim diameter, determined diagonally from rim edge to rim edge (in inches), and the “R” refers to radial tyres, which are the most common tyres found on the road nowadays.R” stands for the construction method of the tire indicating the tire is a radial tire. The following two numbers (16) indicate the diameter of the wheel rim in inches. The next two or three numbers (94) indicate the load index of the tire. In the example, 94 means the tire can carry 670kg.
What is the difference between MTL and MT-90?
MTL is a low 75W, almost a 70W, at very low temperatures and a high 80W, nearly an 85W, at elevated temperatures, providing adequate viscosity to prevent wear and deaden gear noise. MT-90 is a thicker 75W90 version of MTL. Red Line MT-90 Manual Transmission Lubricant A 75W90 GL-4 gear oil (SAE 10W/15W/40 engine oil viscosity) designed for use in manual transmissions and transaxles.Its high viscosity index provides smooth and consistent shifting, reducing gear noise and improving overall transmission performance. Redline MT-90 75w90 is compatible with a wide range of manual transmissions. Including those with brass synchros and transmissions that require GL-4 or GL-5 lubricants.
What does 130 90b16 mean?
B suggests bias-belted and R stands for radial construction. Sometimes, this piece of code will be omitted and “Radial” will be written elsewhere on the sidewall) 16 = rim diameter (in. The letter R in the sequence relates to construction, which means radial. If the tire had a letter B, e. B17”, it would indicate that the tire was bias. Bias belted tires are also labeled with a “-”. An example of this would be “180/55–17”.
What are the benefits of using MT-90?
Red Line MT-90 Manual Transmission Lubricant provides excellent protection of gears and synchronizers and its balanced slipperiness provides a perfect coefficient of friction, allowing easier shifting. MT-90 offers quicker shifts, perfect synchronizer coefficient of friction, high performance gear protection and longer synchro life. Eliminates notchy shifting, even when cold.
