Uses
Lubrication
The main role of motor oil is to lubricate the engine parts, which are constantly subject to friction – the main cause of wear on engine parts. Lubricants reduce friction and wear, in turn reducing maintenance costs.
Cooling
During combustion, heat from combustion and friction between mechanical parts each cause engine temperatures to rise. Motor oil helps to trap, transfer and release this heat through the lubrication circuit, supplementing the engine coolant, which can only cool certain parts of the engine.
Cleaning
The cleaning power of motor oil is fundamental to engine health. Microscopic deposits consisting of dust or combustion residue build up in the engine as it runs. Without motor oil, this residue would clog the engine and decrease its performance as the flow of motor oil continuously carries these impurities to the oil filter, where they are trapped.
Protection against corrosion
Fuel combustion generates corrosive acids that can damage metal engine parts. The additives within modern motor oils neutralise these acids, reducing the corrosive impact of acids. Nevertheless, when in contact with oxygen, motor oil may oxidise over time, no longer playing its corrosion-inhibiting role. That’s why you should change your motor oil regularly.
Sealing
Motor oil also enhances engine sealing, specifically the pistons and cylinders. It does it by forming a protective layer between the various components, sealing any clearances that may arise.
Benefits
• Keeps the engine from damage • Decreases fuel consumption • Ensure long engine lifespan
