Produced in a single top-tier grade, these products offer the highest quality available on the market today and in the widest variety of viscosities.

Fully synthetic ester/PAO formula for passenger cars, light trucks, high-performance vehicles, and marine applications.
Designed to provide maximum protection, efficiency, cleanliness, and superior drain intervals.
Excellent wear protection and reduced friction across a wide range of operating conditions.
High detergency allows for extended drain intervals and provides greater cleanliness.
Improved fuel economy and ring seal for more power.
Superior stability at high temperatures and oxidation resistance enhance lubrication of hot metal compared to other synthetic materials.
The high natural viscosity index (VI) provides a thicker oil film in bearings and cams.
Less evaporation than other synthetics to improve efficiency and ring seal.
Blended with polyol ester/PAO base oils that exhibit natural multigrade properties, avoiding unnecessary additives that hinder lubricity.
All products are fully compatible with conventional and synthetic motor oils.
