Texamatic 1888 is a proven performance Automatic Transmission Fluid formulated for applications that call for the former GM DEXRON®-III H and MERCON® fluids. It is formulated with high performance mineral base oils and a specially balanced additive combination to help provide exceptional oxidation resistance, extended oil life and good wear protection.

Texamatic 1888 is designed for use in automatic transmissions that require a GM DEXRON®-III H type fluid. Although this specification has been made technically obsolete by GM itself, many equipment manufacturers continue to recommend fluids of this type. It can be used in transmissions that require a Ford MERCON® fluid. The product is not recommended for transmissions that require a Ford MERCON® V fluid (this is a separate specification to MERCON®). Due to fundamental differences in frictional properties, it should not be used in applications that require a Ford M2C33 -F/G fluid. Texamatic 1888 is also suitable for use in power steering systems that require a mineral-type Power Steering Fluid. It should not be used in steering or active suspension systems that call for specific semi-synthetic or synthetic fluids, as the response speed may not be sufficiently fast. Texamatic 1888 may also be used as a wide temperature range anti -wear hydraulic fluid for mobile, industrial and marine applications. The viscosity corresponds to ISO VG 32.
