Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • This oil is formulated for heavy duty diesel engines, including older on and off-road diesel vehicles, stationary engines, and heavy equipment used in construction, mining, or quarry operations. It is also specifically suitable for Detroit Diesel two-cycle engines in the Series 53, 71, and 92 families.

  • It can be used in certain transmission and mobile hydraulic systems, but only where the equipment manufacturer specifically recommends the use of mono-grade engine oils. Always verify your equipment manufacturer's recommendation before using it in these applications.

  • As a mono-grade SAE 40 oil, it is not a multi-viscosity formulation — it carries a single viscosity rating rather than a cold-to-hot range. It has a pour point of -21°C (ASTM D 97), a kinematic viscosity of 123 cSt at 40°C, and 13.0 cSt at 100°C, making it suited for reliable all-year-round performance in its intended heavy duty diesel applications.

  • The low ash formulation minimizes the formation of internal deposits and helps keep intake ports clean. This is particularly important for older diesel engines and two-cycle designs like the Detroit Diesel Series 53, 71, and 92, where deposit buildup can directly impact engine durability and performance.

  • The exact API service classification for this product should be confirmed on its Technical Data Sheet before use to ensure it matches your engine's requirements.

  • This oil uses proven performance additives that fight engine wear and prevent deposit formation, delivering excellent wear protection to promote engine durability. It also provides rust and corrosion protection for critical engine parts, helping maintain reliable performance over time.
