AMSOIL Products for Heavy Equipment

AMSOIL Synthetic Diesel Motor Oils help decrease downtime and increase profits.

Wear control – AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils have been proven to keep wear rates lower than conventional oils do (see graph below). Synthetic basestocks reduce friction more effectively than conventional basestocks do, which lowers wear rates and helps keep engine heat from climbing excessively. Outstanding quality antiwear additives protect surfaces from wear in conditions in which a full lubricating film does not develop.

Acid neutralization and soot control – AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils are 12 Total Base Number (TBN) oils and have been proven to neutralize acids and control corrosion for longer periods than conventional oils do The top-quality detergents responsible for long-term acid neutralization also inhibit deposit formation on hot engine surfaces. AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils’ highly effective dispersants control soot and other contaminants for long-lasting protection against wear and sludge formation.

Low temperature fluidity – AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils remain fluid in low temperatures. Low temperature fluidity helps engines start in cold temperatures and ensures rapid cold-temperature post-startup protection.

Chemical and physical stability – AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils offer superior thermal, oxidative and shear stability. Thermal stability allows them to work in high temperatures without undergoing molecular breakdown with consequent increases in oil consumption and formation of sludge precursors. Oxidative stability allows them to work in high temperatures without undergoing chemical changes leading to oil thickening, loss of lubricating ability, and sludge and acid formation. Shear stability keeps them from falling out of viscosity grade and losing their ability to protect against metal-to-metal contact and wear in engine operating temperatures as a result of shear forces.

Fuel economy – AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils’ low coefficient of friction improves fuel economy by reducing the loss of power to friction. Fuel economy increases of five percent are common with AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils.

Extended drain intervals – Fleet demonstrations show AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils protect engines more effectively for extended drain intervals than conventional oils do for conventional drain intervals Many truckers use AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils indefinitely, using oil analysis as their guide to oil changes.

AMSOIL Oil Filtration Systems

The AMSOIL Ea Spin-On By-Pass Filter cleans oil diverted from engine circulation by treating it to ultra-fine filtration that removes sub-micron sized particles and water.

That helps engine oil last its longest and perform its best. In fact, use of the By-Pass oil filter may eliminate the need for oil changes.

Dual-Gard Oil Filtration System
AMSOIL took the performance built into our standard big truck By-Pass filters, and put it into a much more convenient and versatile pacakge.

Wear tests have shown particles of contamination in the sub-20-micron range are most harmful to rings and bearings. Most trucks are sold with a full-flow filter as their only oil cleasnsing unit. A study by the Milwaukee School of Engineering determined the filtering efficiency of four top-selling full-flow filters compared with a BE-90 AMSOIL Spin-On Bypass Filter. The graph (below) shows the By-Pass functioning at 97.6% efficiency in removing particles as small as 3 microns, a feat no full-flow filter can match.

The AMSOIL Ea Dual Remote Oil Filtration System combines the AMSOIL Super Duty Oil Filter and the AMSOIL Spin-On By-Pass Oil Filter on a single mount that may be placed anywhere space allows in the engine compartment, for ease of serviceability.

The Dual Remote increases the circulating oil volume in the engine. That helps the oil stay cleaner and last longer, and it helps regulate engine temperature, which promotes engine life.

AMS-Oiler™

The AMS-Oiler™ is an oil pre-charger that puts an end to dry-engine starting. Typically, an engine that sits idle for even a short period of time will operate relatively dry upon starting before oil is able to fully lubricate the system. In fact, the automotive industry estimates that up to 50 percent of engine bearing wear occurs during the starting process. Indeed, the superiority of AMSOIL motor oils minimizes start-up wear by clinging to the metal surfaces, but even more can be done to concentrate the oil on the critical wear areas in an engine. With the AMS-Oiler in place, 160 cubic centimeters of oil is injected directly on the engine bearings and other wear sensitive surfaces upon turning of the key, giving instant protection to vital engine components.

Oil Analysis

Right now, the oil working in your crankcase, gearbox or sump contains information that could be vital to the performance and productivity of your engine or equipment. Contaminants that can indicate wear or cause serious equipment damage such as metals, water, raw fuel, acids, fuel soot and other solids collect in your lubricant. Using oil analysis to evaluate these contaminants is a scientific approach to predictive maintenance, allowing you a look inside your machinery to spot mechanical wear and contamination in its early stages. You'll extend machine life, head off major maintenance costs and prevent catastrophic failure that can shut you down or leave you stranded, and you'll maximize lubricant life.
