Quick Answer

Kubota’s manuals call for Kubota Super UDT2 (the BX manual’s fluid table lists “KUBOTA SUPER UDT-2 fluid”). Genuine part numbers are 70000-40201 (1 gallon, $40.77), 70000-40202 (2.5 gallon, $94.79) and 70000-40205 (5 gallon, $138.38) at Messick’s on Oct 20, 2026. Kubota says Super UDT2 is fully interchangeable with UDT and Super UDT. Several other makers list “Kubota UDT” compatibility on their own sheets, but we found no Kubota approval of any aftermarket fluid, and none of those sheets we checked names Super UDT2 except TRIAX’s Supreme page.

What Kubota Says About Super UDT2
From Kubota USA’s Lubricants Page and FAQ
  • “Multi-purpose all-weather hydraulic fluid,” recommended for the hydraulic, final drive, transmission, differential and wet brake systems.
  • “Fully interchangeable with standard UDT and Super UDT fluids.”
  • Kubota’s FAQ: “approximately 75% synthetic.” Messick’s labels the 5-gallon pail “Full-Synthetic,” so the two do not match.
  • Typical properties listed by Kubota: 37 cSt at 40°C, 8.1 cSt at 100°C, viscosity index 199, maximum pour point -42°C.
  • For “reliable, long lasting performance,” Kubota says to “choose Kubota Genuine Products.”

Kubota’s page does not state an API GL-4, John Deere J20C or other industry rating for Super UDT2. Older versions of this page listed those as Kubota specs, and we could not source them, so we removed them. This means we cannot give you a spec to “match” on a label.

Genuine Kubota Super UDT2
Part number Size Price (Messick’s, Oct 20, 2026) Per gallon
70000-40201 1 gallon $40.77 $40.77
70000-40202 2.5 gallon $94.79 $37.92
70000-40205 5 gallon pail $138.38 $27.68

Kubota also lists 70000-40200 (quart), 70000-40255 (55-gallon drum) and 70000-40233 (325-gallon tote). We did not price those. Order by part number from a Kubota dealer, or check the Super UDT2 2.5-gallon listing on Amazon.

What Aftermarket Fluid Makers Say About Kubota
Fluid What the maker publishes Names Super UDT2? Source
TRIAX Agra UTTO XL OEM Cross-Reference lists “Kubota UDT, UDT2” and “Kubota Super UDT” Not by that exact name TRIAX product page
TRIAX Agra UTTO Supreme Description names “Kubota Super UDT2” Yes TRIAX Supreme page
Lucas Oil 10017 “Kubota UDT (Current)” under suitable applications No Lucas data sheet, updated Mar 26, 2024
MAG 1 Universal Tractor Trans-Hydraulic “Kubota UDT” marked “Suitable for Use” No MAG 1 data sheet
Starfire Premium Tractor Hydraulic “Kubota Universal Transdraulic Fluid: UTD & Super UTD” (the maker’s spelling) No Starfire data sheet

These are the makers’ own claims. They are not Kubota approvals, and we did not test any fluid. We found no Kubota statement approving a non-Kubota fluid. TRIAX’s XL page also lists John Deere, Case and New Holland specs, but Kubota does not publish a spec for you to compare them against. We did not retrieve a manufacturer-hosted TRIAX XL data sheet.

If You Use a Non-Kubota Fluid

Pick one product and use it for the whole fill. We found no Kubota guidance on mixing Super UDT2 with other brands, so draining and refilling with a single fluid is the cautious route. If your tractor is under warranty, ask your Kubota dealer first.

M7-172 CVT 80 L (21.1 U.S. gal). The manual lists “KUBOTA UDT-HD fluid,” not Super UDT2. Same manual, printed p. 233

These are transmission-case figures. A partial drain may not take the full amount, and the M7-172’s rear axle case is listed separately. We could not verify the L4701 or M7060. See our fluid capacity chart and check your operator’s manual.

Fluid Change Interval

Kubota’s manuals list the transmission and hydraulic fluid at 400 hours for the BX, B-series and L-series, and 1,000 hours for the M5-111, M6060 and M7060. The hydraulic filter and HST filter have their own intervals, which we list in the hydraulic filter chart. For the steps, see our transmission fluid change guide. We did not verify a first-service fluid interval.

What We Could Not Verify
  • Any Kubota approval for a non-Kubota fluid, and whether any aftermarket data sheet explicitly names Super UDT2 (only TRIAX’s Supreme page does).
  • A manufacturer-hosted TRIAX XL data sheet. We relied on TRIAX’s product page.
  • Transmission fluid capacity for the L4701 and M7060, and the B2601 in the manual we checked today.
  • Amazon prices for any fluid, and a first-service fluid change interval.
  • Warranty terms for using non-Kubota fluid. Ask your dealer.
How We Verified This Page

Super UDT2 description and part numbers come from Kubota USA’s lubricants page and FAQ. Prices come from Messick’s Kubota fluids catalog (Oct 20, 2026). Aftermarket claims come from each maker’s own product page or data sheet. Capacities and intervals come from Kubota-authored operator’s manuals hosted by third parties (ManualsLib and a Kubota PDF host), with printed pages where verified. Confirm with your Kubota dealer before you change fluids.

QWhat is the difference between UDT, Super UDT and Super UDT2?

Kubota says Super UDT2 is fully interchangeable with standard UDT and Super UDT fluids. Kubota does not publish a detailed comparison on the pages we checked.

QDoes the M7-172 CVT use Super UDT2?

Kubota’s M7-172 manual lists “KUBOTA UDT-HD fluid” for the CVT model and does not name Super UDT2 in that row. Check your manual.

QHow much transmission fluid does my Kubota take?

About 3 gallons for a BX, 4 gallons for the B2650 and B2601HSD, and 6.2 to 7.5 gallons for the L2501 and L3901. See the capacity table above, and check your manual.
