Engine Oil

Engine Oil

Engine Oil / Motor Oil means a petroleum product used to lubricate the internal parts of an engine to reduce friction and wear between the moving parts and also serves as a coolant. The term includes lubricating and operational fluids for the mechanical components associated with the engine. This includes any hydraulic, transmission, gear or braking lubricating or operational fluid that through use, storage or handling has become unsuitable for its original purpose due to the presence of impurities or loss of original properties.

Motor oil is a lubricant used in internal combustion engines, which power cars, motorcycles, lawnmowers, engine-generators, and many other machines. In engines, there are parts which move against each other and the friction between the parts wastes otherwise useful power by converting kinetic energy into heat. It also wears away those parts, which could lead to lower efficiency and degradation of the engine. Proper lubrication decreases fuel consumption, decreases wasted power, decrease frictional heat and reduces wear, thus protecting the engine.
