The battle of oils: synthetic vs conventional

24th october, 2023

Oil is to an engine what blood is to the human body.

Oil is to an engine what blood is to the human body.

It lubricates, protects, and ensures efficient performance. However, like any vital component, the quality of the oil matters immensely. While conventional oils have been the trusted companion of vehicles for decades, synthetic oils have steadily gained recognition. But what sets them apart?

Not all oils are created equal. Synthetic oils are chemically engineered to meet specific performance characteristics and offer better high and low-temperature performance with cleaner operation. Make sure to consult your vehicle's manual and consider our range of synthetic oils.

The science behind the oils

Conventional oils are derived directly from crude oil. They offer lubrication at high temperatures and maintain stability over longer periods. Synthetic oils, on the other hand, are not only refined but also distilled, purified, and broken down into their basic molecules. This process eliminates impurities from the crude oil and enables individual molecules in the synthetic oil to be tailored to meet the specific demands of modern engines.

Performance under extremes

Engines undergo various temperature changes. Whether it's the cold of winter or the scorching heat of summer, oils need to adapt. Synthetic oils have a significant advantage here. They flow better in cold temperatures and maintain peak lubricity in high temperatures.

Protection and longevity

All oils degrade over time. However, synthetic oils are engineered to resist sludge and deposit formation. With enhanced oxidation and thermal stability, synthetic oils can extend not only the life of the oil but also of your engine.

Value for money

Though synthetic oils may cost more upfront, they require less frequent changes than conventional oils. This could mean saving money in the long run and less environmental waste from used oil and filters.
