It's a gear oil. Stolen from the API website:
API GL-1 denotes lubricants intended for manual transmissions operating under such
mild conditions that straight petroleum or refined petroleum oil may be used
satisfactorily. Oxidation and rust inhibitors, defoamers, and pour depressants may be
added to improve the characteristics of these lubricants. Friction modifiers and extreme
pressure additives shall not be used.
API GL-1 lubricants are generally not satisfactory for many passenger car manual
transmissions. However, these lubricants have been used in some truck and tractor
manual transmissions. Lubricants meeting service designation API MT-1 are an
upgrade in performance over lubricants meeting API GL-1 and are preferred by major
commercial vehicle manual transmission manufacturers. In all cases the transmission
manufacturer�s lubricant quality recommendations should be followed.
