Havoline Formula 20W-50 ticks all the boxes when it comes to PCMOs
In the world of lubricants, motor oil plays a crucial role. The PCMO needs to deliver the specific key functions of lubrication. These include the need for the oil to prevent deposits from forming on the parts and affecting their proper operation, and to be able to hold deposits in suspension until the oil is due for a change. Motor oils also provide a protective coating to metal surfaces to reduce the wear caused by friction. The oil must also be compatible with the metal surfaces and avoid corrosion by reaction between oil additives and the metal and it must resist oxidation and handle extreme operating conditions with absolute ease.
In order to deliver all the lubrication functions, a PCMO must be formulated with a balanced additive system with premium base stock and a viscosity modifier. The additive system needs to consist primarily of detergents and dispersants to neutralize the acids formed from the combustion by-products and also clean the engine by keeping deposits in suspension until they are removed at the oil drain. The anti-oxidant additive is also required to control oil thickening and degradation.
Modern PCMOs also contain friction modifiers to impart fuel economy performance to the engine oil.
This is where the Havoline Formula 20W-50 can make a world of difference. This highly shear-stable, multigrade gasoline engine oil is formulated from selected base fluids for passenger car and light truck engines requiring API SL or lower performance lubricants, and where SAE 20W-50 viscosity grading is acceptable.
One of the key features of the Havoline Formula 20W-50 is its ability to protect against sludge and deposit formation. Sludge and deposits can form in an engine over time, leading to reduced efficiency and increased wear. This motor oil is formulated with special detergents and dispersants that help to keep the engine clean and running smoothly.
This motor oil is also known for its proven metallo-organic anti-wear additive system that protects engines under severe operating conditions by providing excellent wear control.
Havoline Formula 20W-50 has a metallic detergent and ashless dispersant additive system that maintains high power and performance by providing excellent control of engine deposits under high-temperature conditions.
This multi-grade gasoline engine oil has high thermal stability and oxidation resistance and provides excellent protection against in-service oil degradation that contributes to filter blocking and sludge formation in the oil galleries, crankcase, and valve train. This helps to keep the engine clean and running smoothly while saving on maintenance costs.
Overall, the Havoline Formula 20W-50 is a high-performance motor oil that offers a wide range of benefits for both the engine and the environment. So, whether you drive a car, truck, or motorcycle, Havoline Formula 20W-50 may be an excellent choice for keeping your engine running smoothly and efficiently.
