Royal Purple Oil

Numerous independent tests and user testimonials document performance gains by using Royal Purple lubricants:

• Increased horsepower and torque - Multiple independant tests show increases in horsepower up to 3% and torque up to 2% by switching to Royal Purple.
• Reduced engine wear - Film strength indicates how well oil will prevent wear; Royal Purple has up to 400% greater film strength than other oils.
• Improved fuel economy (reduced fuel use by as much as 5%)
• Reduced heat-Testing shows heat reductions of 12% by switching to Royal Purple.
• Reduced emissions by more than 20%
• Fewer oil changes-Oil life average is 12,000 miles compared to 3,000 miles for standard oil.

Royal Purple’s advanced additive technologies, such as Synerlec, enable its products to outperform leading synthetic and conventional lubricants. These unique chemistries strengthen the base oil for improved performance. They also create an ionic bond that adheres to metal parts for continuous protection.
The film strength of a lubricant is its inherent ability to withstand the effects of load, speed and temperature without breaking down or rupturing, thus enabling the lubricant to maintain an unbroken film between lubricated surfaces under operating conditions. Royal Purple’s high film strength improves combustion to free up more power, optimize fuel economy and reduce emissions. High film strength also dramatically reduces wear.
Royal Purple actually improves the condition of metal surfaces by remaining long after pressure would have been squeezed out of ordinary lubricants. Royal Purple responds to increased pressure with increased viscosity.
Extended oil life saves time, money and the environment. Lubricants often have a limited service life due to oxidation which reduces oil’s ability to lubricate. Oil’s ability to resist oxidation is measured by the ASTM’s rigorous Thin Film Oxidation Uptake Test (TFOUT). The test is so severe that it lasts only 1,300 minutes. Royal Purple not only surpasses leading mineral- and synthetic-based oils in the test, it also outlasts the duration of the test. Royal Purple’s superior oxidation stability enable oil changes to be extended up to 12,000 miles or more, depending on the equipment. Extending oil change intervals saves you time and money. It also reduces the impact on the environment by reducing the amount of oil that must be produced and disposed of.



 

Take a look at the pictures above. The one on the left, surprisingly, is a new bearing, and the one in the middle is a bearing after using a synthetic oil. The photo on the far right, however, shows a bearing that has been smoothed out after using Royal Purple.
