PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Motor Oil is specially formulated to
provide superior protection and performance in a wide variety of demanding
applications. By incorporating high-quality synthetic base
stocks and a superior high-zinc additive package, AMSOIL Premium Protection
Oil exceeds the needs of large and small gasoline or diesel engines in cars,
motorcycles, trucks, motor homes, maintenance equipment, heavy equipment,
street rods and marine applications. It is ideal for high-mileage vehicles,
vehicles with flat-tappet cams and high-stress vehicles subject to hot
temperatures, heavy hauling, trailer pulling or off-road use. AMSOIL Premium
Protection Oil resists oxidation, neutralizes acids, inhibits corrosion,
reduces wear and protects against deposits. It provides the extra anti-wear
protection required by engines with flat-tappet cams and high-tension valve
springs. AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Premium Protection Motor Oil offers
flexibility and performance beyond conventional oil for convenience and
trouble-free operation.
AMSOIL, the leader in
automotive synthetic lubrication, produced the world’s first API qualified
synthetic motor oil in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL The
First in Synthetics® to do the best job protecting your engine.
Provides
Superior Wear Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Premium Protection Motor Oil is a high viscosity oil
engineered to protect against metal-to-metal contact. It resists viscosity
shear and is formulated with a heavy treatment of zinc and other anti-wear
additives for excellent protection of gears, bearings, cam lobes and other
high-pressure components in engines and transmissions. AMSOIL Premium
Protection Synthetic Motor Oil helps extend engine life.
Exceeds the
Requirements of Wet Clutch Transmissions
AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction
modifiers, making it ideal for motorcycles, maintenance equipment and other
wet clutch transmission applications. Formulated to prevent clutch glazing
and slippage, it insures smooth clutch engagement and long term, dependable
transmission operation. AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50
Motor Oil reduces clutch wear for extended transmission life.
Resists
Oxidation and High Temperature Breakdown
AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil is specifically formulated to
overcome the thermal deficiencies
common to conventional petroleum oils. Volatilization (burn-off), oxidation
and excessive deposit formation from high heat are greatly reduced.
Viscosity thickening is controlled and engines run cleaner, promoting cooler
operation and long engine life in air- or liquid-cooled engines. In
addition, the higher viscosity nature of AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Motor Oil
may help reduce motor oil consumption in equipment that experiences
higher-than-normal usage rates when lower-viscosity lubricants are
installed.
Extends Drain
Intervals in Gasoline and Diesel Engines
The superior AMSOIL synthetic base stock and additive technology exceeds the
requirements of both gasoline and diesel engines. AMSOIL Premium Protection
Motor Oil neutralizes acids, disperses soot and lasts longer in service than
conventional oils.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Premium Protection
Motor Oil is a multi-use, premium synthetic lubricant for applications that
require or benefit from a higher viscosity oil. It is recommended for air
and liquid cooled, large or small gasoline and diesel engines, transmissions
and chaincase applications where 20W-50 oil is required with any of the
following specifications:
- API SL, SJ, SH, SG
- API CI-4 Plus, CH-4, CF, CF-2
- ISO-L-EMA • Caterpillar ECF-1
- JASO MA (Motorcycle) • MAN 271/3275 • MTU Type 2
- Cummins 20071/20072/20076/20077 • VDS-2, VDS
- Mack EO-M+ • ACEA A3/B3, E3, E5 • MB 228.3, 229.1
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Premium Protection
Motor Oil is compatible with conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing
AMSOIL motor oils with other oils, however, will shorten the oil life
expectancy and reduce the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support
extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed. Aftermarket oil
additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL
Synthetic Oils.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic 20W-50 Premium Protection
Motor Oil is recommended for extended intervals in unmodified,
mechanically-sound vehicles or equipment as follows:
Diesel Engine
Service
•Normal Service - Up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or
longer based on oil analysis.
•Severe Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or
longer based on oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine
Service
•Normal Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or
longer based on oil analysis.
•Severe Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or
longer based on oil analysis.
Motorcycles,
Small Engines, Stationary Engines, Heavy Equipment and Other Applications
•Extend drain intervals based on oil analysis or follow the
manufacturer-recommended drain interval.
AMSOIL Ea™ Full-Flow Oil
Filters are designed for extended drain intervals. They stop smaller
particles, flow more oil and last longer than regular filters. For best
performance, use AMSOIL Ea™ Full-Flow Oil Filters and replace at the time of
oil change. Other oil filters should be changed at standard OEM* intervals.
