Enhanced T6 Full Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Engine Oil - 1 - 5 Gallon Pail

Shell ROTELLA T4 Triple Protection is an excellent choice for a wide range of heavy-duty engine applications. With its wide range of specifications and approvals from many of the world's leading engine manufacturers, it is suitable for on-highway fleets, general hauling, construction, agriculture, public transport operators, diesel pickup trucks, and high-power vehicles where resistance to increased heat and stress is required.

Motor oil is made from crude oil and is used to lubricate, clean, and cool engines. There are various types of motor oil, including conventional, synthetic, diesel, bio-based, hybrid (blends of conventional and synthetic), and recycled oils. Motor oil varies in weight and viscosity, as well as additives that some manufacturers incorporate during the refining process.

The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has created a numerical code system to grade motor oils according to viscosity, with the higher the number between 0 and 60, the more viscous (thicker) the oil is. Most consumer motor oils are graded by two numbers, with the first number indicating cold weather (Winter or "W") performance.

This particular oil has a weight of SAE 15W-40, meaning it has an SAE viscosity rating of 15 in cold temperatures and a rating of 40 at normal operating temperature. It is essential to check your vehicle's owner's manual to ensure that this is the correct weight of motor oil for your vehicle.

This oil is a conventional motor oil, meaning it is refined from crude oil or petroleum products. Conventional motor oils may or may not have additives included after refining. Conventional motor oils are more versatile than synthetic or hybrid motor oils, as they are suitable for use with nearly all types of modern vehicle engines, from cars and trucks to motorcycles, ATVs, farm equipment, and more.

Key features of this conventional motor oil: - Compatible with most vehicles - Motor oil weight: SAE 15W-40 - Industry-tested for up to 50% less engine wear - Enhanced engine cleanliness and viscosity control - Designed to control piston deposits in late model engines

Shell Rotella T Triple Protection Heavy Duty oils provide triple action to help control wear, deposits, and emissions, continuously adapting to the needs of your engine for protection in on and off-highway applications.
