| Description |
|
| BESTLUB PRIME 15w40 grade oil has been developed for diesel engines, which meets the latest and highest standards of API specification CF4/SG. This oil also exceeds US Military standards MIL-L-2104 E and MIL - L- 46152 D standards. These oils are blended with carefully selected base oils and international standard viscosity improvers along with well-balanced additive packages. The TBN value of this oil is 12, there by helps compacting the sulphur compounds of combustion more effectively. These are available in SAE grade 15 W 40. |

| Application |
|
| BESTLUB PRIME 15w40 is a commercial multipurpose diesel engine oil suitable for both low speed-high load and high speed - high load operating engines. These are recommended for all naturally aspirated, turbo charged on highway and off highway diesel engines. These oils are also recommended for modern marine engines, which require up to API CF4 type oils for diesel engines or upto API SG type oil for petrol engines. BESTLUB PRIME 15w40is recommended for all modern low emission diesel engines of the new generation. However BESTLUB PRIME 15w40 grade was found very effective over the conventional diesel engines, which impart better performance. |

| Performance |
|
| The high reserves of alkalinity in the additive package used for formulation have been found more effective in neutralizing the acidic products of combustion in a more effective manner. The high reserves of alkalinity increase the oil drain interval extensively to about two and a half times to conventional API CC type. These oils have a low tendency of oil thickening, which reduces the consumption. BESTLUB PRIME 15w40 grade meets the higher standards of CF4 and SG thereby reducing the inventory of mixed fleet operators. |
