AeroShell Oil

AeroShell Oils and AeroShell W Oil is intended for use in four-stroke cycle aircraft reciprocating piston engines. The term “ashless dispersant” was given to aviation oils to distinguish them from straight mineral aircraft piston engine oils. Because of the negative effect of ash on aircraft engine performance, it is very important that ash-containing oils are NOT used in an aircraft piston engine.

For the majority of aircraft piston engines the selection of the right grade is important to maximize engine performance and engine life. The AeroShell Oil and AeroShell Oil comes in four grades: 65 and W65; 80 and W80 and W80 Plus; 100 and W100 and W100 Plus; 120 and W120. The grades differ only by viscosity and thus cover the needs of all reciprocating engines now in airline and general aviation operation.

Frequent oil changes specified by engine hour time limits and calendar time limits are necessary and not caused by the oil wearing out but by the by-products contaminating the oils such as: water, dust, dirt and unburned fuel. Operators are urged to follow the engine manufacturers’ or rebuilders’ recommendation for oil change intervals to avoid the damaging lead sludge found in engines that can shorten engine life and possibly void warranty work by the engine manufacturer.

Aviation Piston Oils

AeroShell Oil 15W-50   Aeroshell Oil W15 - 50 is a premium semi-synthetic multigrade ashless dispersant oil specifically developed for aviation piston engines. AeroShell Oil W 15W-50 is a special blend of a high quality mineral oil and synthetic hydrocarbons with an advanced additive package that has been specifically formulated for multigrade applications. The combination of non-metallic anti-wear additives and selected high viscosity index mineral and synthetic base oils, give exceptional stability, dispersancy and anti-foaming performance. The advanced additive package in AeroShell W 15W-50 provides excellent protection to engines operating at extreme ambient temperatures. The ashless anti-wear additive package provides exceptional wear protection for camshafts and lifters and other wearing surfaces. AeroShell W 15W-50 has become very popular amongst engine manufacturers and operators alike. In order to cater for those Lycoming engines that need improved load carrying, the Lycoming LW 16702 antiwear additive has been incorporated into the formulation thus eliminating the need for supplemental additive addition.   Price: $84.68 Per Case of 12 Qty  Case of 12

AeroShell Oil 65, 80, 100   Straight Grade Engine Oils AeroShell Oils 65, 80, 100 and 120 are straight mineral oils blended from selected high viscosity index base oils. These oils do not contain any additives except for very small amounts of pour point depressant (which aids to improve fluidity at very low temperatures) and an anti-oxidant. AeroShell Oils 65, 80, 100 and 120 are approved for all aviation piston engines of civil aircraft when the use of an oil not containing a dispersant additive is required; however, they should also be used during the break-in of a new aviation piston engine or those recently overhauled. The specially blended High Viscosity Index base oils in AeroShell Oil 65, 80, 100 and 120 have been designed to provide effective protection to engine components compared to conventional mineral oils. This ensures complete confidence and peace of mind knowing that your aircraft will perform reliably in between scheduled overhauls. AeroShell Oils 65, 80, 100 and 120 are produced to meet fully the SAE specification J-1966 (Grades SAE 30, 40, 50 and 60  respectively). Furthermore, they all have military qualification approval and are listed on the Qualified Products List (QPL) issued by the US Navy and on the Technically Acceptable Products List (TAPL) issued by the UK Ministry of  Defense.   Select Oils option 65 80 100    Price: $53.29 Per Case of 12 Qty  Case of 12

AeroShell Oil W120   AeroShell Oils W80, W100 and W120 are ashless dispersant oils specifically developed for aviation piston engines. They combine non-metallic additives with selected high viscosity index base oils to give exceptional stability, dispersancy and anti-foaming performance. No general rule exists for every engine type when choosing the correct grade of oil; however, based on the average ambient outside temperature at engine start-up the most common grades are SAE 40, SAE 50 and SAE 60, which equates to AeroShell Oil W80, W100 and W120 respectively.  Traditionally, the choice is associated with climatic zones - AeroShell W80 for cold climate regions (-17 - 21°C), AeroShell Oil W100 for temperate regions (15 - 30°C) and AeroShell Oil W120 for warmer climates (above 26°C). AeroShell Oils W65, W80, W100 and W120 are produced to meet fully the SAE specification J-1899 (Grades SAE 30, 40, 50 and 60 respectively). Furthermore, they all have military qualification approval and are listed on the Qualified Products List (QPL) issued by the US Navy and on the Technically Acceptable Products List (TAPL) issued by the UK Ministry of Defence. The blending plants employed to manufacture these oils also hold the approval of the specification authorities and this ensures that the high quality standard is always maintained.   Price: $71.39 Per Case of 4 Qty  Case of 4
