Aeroshell Oils 65 80 100 and 120

AeroShell Oils 65, 80, 100 and 120 are straight mineral oils blended from base stocks and containing small amounts of additives. They are approved for use in certified aircraft piston engines according to specification SAE J-1966. The oils come in four viscosity grades corresponding to their viscosity at 210°F and are used primarily for engine break-in. They do not require a dispersant additive.
