The AeroShell 100 Mineral Oil is a specially blended to protect engine components better than other oils on the market. Your aircraft will perform more reliably, and you'll experience a comfortable flight. AeroShell mineral oil is formulated to be a step above the rest. The process all starts with a good base; when they are blended, the process uses carefully selected high viscosity index base stocks. In addition, the SAE 50 oil contains very few additives, including a small quantity of anti-oxidant and a pourpoint depressant to improve fluidity at low temperatures.
AeroShell 100 Mineral Oil is approved for aviation piston engines of civil aircraft that do not require oil containing a dispersant additive. This SAE 50 oil also performs flawlessly during the break-in of a new piston engine or a recently overhauled engine.
Four-stroke cycle certificated aircraft reciprocating piston engines when use of an ashless dispersant (AD) oil is not required Used for break-in of most certificated four-stroke cycle aviation piston engines. The duration and lubrication for break-in vary, so aircraft owners should refer to the original engine manufacturer and/or overhaul facility for specific recommendations. Antique aircraft, which operate with very low oil temperatures or in aircraft that, have previously been run exclusively on mineral oil for an extend period of time
