Ohio-Synthetic Diesel Oils
Synthetic diesel engine oil does not include any petroleum traces. While petroleum is the base of most engine fluids, it is also the source of inefficiency and acidic corrosion. Changing to a synthetic oil for both the motor and transmission has many benefits for heavy diesel vehicles.
Due to the uniformity of synthetic diesel engine oil, it has a longer drain interval. Since the oil can be kept for one year or 25,000 miles, maintenance costs are reduced. Longer drain intervals for larger diesel vehicles also means that less money and time is spent disposing of the old oils.
Diesel Engine Oil Gives Performance Benefits
Diesel engine oil must be able to work in high temperature and stress environments. Synthetics oils are able to operate at higher temperatures than petroleum-based products. For example, synthetics retain their low-viscosity properties at high temperatures, which allows heavy diesel engines to perform with more power. Synthetic transmission fluids provide additional protection against colder environments since they do not have the wax properties of petroleum.
The inclusion of certain additives in synthetic diesel engine oil reduces metal contact that creates friction, which can lead to overheating. Under these situations, normal petroleum lubricants would also leave deposits that can cause filter clogs or acidic corrosion.
High Tech Synthetic Oil provides synthetic diesel engine, motor and transmission from its Ohio location. The company also deals in other Amsoil products, such as gear lubricants, that can further improve the performance of diesel vehicles.
