W grade Oil:
AEROSHELL OILS W65, W80, W100 and W120
AeroShell W Oils were the first non-ash dispersant oils to be used in aircraft
piston engines. They combine non-metallic additives with selected high viscosity
index base stocks to give exceptional stability, dispersancy and anti-foaming
performance. These additives leave no metallic ash residues that can lead to
deposit formation in combustion chambers and on spark plugs, which can cause
pre-ignition and possible engine failure.
AEROSHELL OILS W65, W80, W100 and W120 APPLICATIONS:
AeroShell W Oils are available in four different viscosity grades,
The suffix for each grade corresponds to the viscosity of the oil at 210°F in
Saybolt Universal Seconds:
-
AeroShell Oil W65
-
AeroShell Oil W80
-
AeroShell Oil W100
-
AeroShell Oil W120
AEROSHELL W Oils
• Promote engine cleanliness
• Help keep engines sludge free
• Help reduce oil consumption
• Help engines reach TBO (Time Between Overhaul)
• Protect highly stressed engine parts against scuffing and wear
AeroShell W Oils are intended for use in four-stroke cycle certified
reciprocating piston engines, including fuel-injected and turbocharged
engines. AeroShell W Oils are not recommended for use in automotive
engines. For automotive engines converted for use in aircraft, the specific
engine manufacturer or the conversion agency should be consulted for
proper oil recommendation.
Most radial engine operators use AeroShell Oil W120 in warm weather
operations with AeroShell Oil W100 or
AeroShell Oil W 15W-50 being
used in cooler ambient temperatures.
AeroShell Oil W100 or
AeroShell Oil W 15W-50 are the common choices
for most operators of Lycoming and Continental flat engines but, during
colder parts of the year, use of AeroShell Oil W80 in place of
AeroShell
Oil W100 would be an excellent choice.
Although some engine manufacturers and overhaulers suggest in their
service bulletins the use of a straight mineral oil in new or recently
overhauled engines for break-in, other rebuilders and manufacturers
especially for engines such as the Lycoming O-320H recommend use of an
AeroShell W Oil for break-in. Operators should therefore check with
engine rebuilders or manufacturers for the correct recommendations for the
specific engine.
