PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS:
V.I. Plus 20w/50 is a blend of the highest quality base oils and selected additives. The anti-wear additive in V.I. Plus 20w/50 minimizes wear and scuffing of metal surfaces under boundary lubrication conditions. The detergent-dispersant additives protect against sludge formation and varnish deposits. The anti-oxidant additive provides excellent resistance to oxidation during the high temperatures encountered in modern on-road and off-road driving.
V.I. Plus 20w/50 contains selected alkaline additives, which give a much higher TBN than regular SJ engine oils. This higher TBN provides much better protection against the formation of acidic compounds than conventional engine oils. It also has a much higher viscosity index than conventional oils. This benefit provides better all weather (hot or cold) performance than regular engine oil.
SUMMARY:
V.I. Plus 20w/50 Engine Oil provides the following advantages:
- Meets or exceeds the performance requirements of current and proposed engine oil specifications
- Protects low-emission engines from wear and deposits
- Resists soot-related viscosity increase
- Extends engine life while meeting emissions requirements
- Improves engine durability, keeping equipment in as new condition
PERFORMANCE CAPABILITIES:
Meets and exceeds the following performance requirements: API: SJ, SH, SG
