Product Description

5W-30 is a high-performance, multigrade engine oil designed to provide superior protection and efficiency across a wide range of temperatures. Its formulation balances excellent low-temperature flow characteristics with robust high-temperature performance, making it one of the most widely recommended viscosities for modern gasoline engines.

The “5W” rating indicates excellent cold-start performance and fast oil circulation at low temperatures, while the “30” refers to its stable viscosity at operating temperatures, ensuring effective lubrication and engine protection under load and high heat.

Formulated to meet or exceed industry standards such as API SP, ILSAC GF-6A, and various OEM specifications, 5W-30 motor oil helps reduce engine wear, control sludge and deposit formation, and enhance fuel economy. It is suitable for use in a wide range of vehicles, including cars, SUVs, and light-duty trucks equipped with naturally aspirated, turbocharged, or direct-injection engines.

Key Features:

  • Superior cold-weather start-up protection

  • Enhanced fuel efficiency

  • Strong resistance to oxidation and thermal breakdown

  • Helps protect turbochargers and GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) systems

  • Reduces engine wear, sludge, and deposits

Applications:

  • Recommended for most modern passenger cars and light trucks

  • Compatible with vehicles requiring API SP, SN Plus, or earlier

  • Approved by many major automakers including Ford, GM, Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, and more
