MPT Thirty-K oils.
MPT THITRY-K Oils Utilize 100% fully synthetic POE/PAO Base Oils.
MPT THIRTY-K, unlike virtually ALL other oil manufacturers of today, provides MSDS that give potential customers the necessary information to know that they are purchasing a motor oil with REAL Group V POE/GroupIV PAO base oils
MPT THIRTY-K OILS, unlike most oil manufacturers of today, provides you with MSDS that give customers the details of their TOP NOTCH ADDITIVE PACKAGE. You are given the PPMs for Zinc, Phosphorous and Moly. Very little information about these oils is proprietary.
THE BEST BASE OILS BALANCED WITH THE BEST ADDITIVES PRODUCE THE BEST OILS!
We believe that the MSDS sheets are particularly important in this era of Group III "synthetic oils" (for marketing purposes). Since the redefinition of synthetic oil in the year 2000 (by the BBB-NAD) to include Group III mineral oils as synthetic oils, it has become almost impossible to assess which oils are "real synthetic" API Group IV/Group V oils. The vast majority of oil manufacturers consider specification of base oil(s), additives, CAS#s, etc., to be PROPRIETARY!! Thus, MSDS sheets have become useful only to EMS and other medical professionals in the prescription of medical care; but, are basically useless to the oil buying public with respect to the blending and content of the specific oil. MPT THIRY-K is relatively unique in this respect, see for yourself! Try to find other oils that gives you the percentage of ESTER AND/OR PAO in their MSDS! MPT THIRTY-K oils possess a 100% FULLY=SYNTHETIC POE/ PAO base oil! The only non-synthetic oils are in the additive package carier oils.
To repeat, MPT Thirty-K oils’ performance attributes are largely a function of the best base oils possible. Nevertheless, MPT Thirty-K oils also contain the best additives possible. MPT Thirty-K oils are fully formulated with with significant levels of moly, zinc and phosphorous as well as a proprietary set of 21st century additives. And finaly, these MPT Thirty-K oil are WELL BALANCED oils with careful formulations of the base oils and additives. Again, we emphasize fully formulated and balances oils!
Shear Stability is a measure of whether and how much of the oil’s viscosity is lost in an engine during operation. Motor oils undergoe significant stresses in many parts of the engine. Virtually all multigrade engine oils made from mineral oil contain special additives, called Viscosity Index Improvers. These molecules are much larger in size than the oil molecules and are used to give higher levels of kinematic viscosity (cSt @ 100C) at engine operating temperatures that are required of multigrade oils. However, as these VIIs pass through the engine, some of these larger molecules are broken down(SHEARED) into smaller molecules and the oil thereby loses viscosity. Oils that do not contain these VIIs, such as single grade oils and these high quality MPT Thirty-K oils, will experience miniscule or no viscosity loss. The shear stability of an oil is measured by using both ASTM test methods D4683 and D5275. First, the viscosity of an engine oil is measured and then the oil is exposed to severe shearing conditions by pumping it through a diesel fuel injection nozzle at high pressure. After shearing the oil, its viscosity is measured again. The percentage of viscosity lost is determined by comparing the second viscosity measurement with the original viscosity measurement. The HTHS of an oil is a numeric measurement of the “non-shear” ability of an oil. The higher the number, the better.
The RACING OILS are intended for EXTREME DUTY OR RACING ONLY. They have lower levels of detergency e.g. calcium, magnesium and sodium. High levels of detergency in racing oils would be counterproductive because the detergents would “scavenge” the boundary lubricant additives. Note, the zinc/phosphorous and moly levels in these racing oils! SIMPLY PUT, THE BEST BASE OILS COUPLED WITH THE BEST ADDITIVES PRODUCE THE BEST OILS!
Finally, let us talk about cost. MPT Thirty-K oils are not cheap. They are relatively expensive oils. There is no group of products, better than motor oils to demonstrate the old adage “YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR”. It is far less costly to formulate a motor oil with Group II mineral oil and less expensive addtives and still meet API standards. One can also blend a motor oil with 5% group III mineral oils and 95% group II mineral oil with average additives and call it a synthetic oil! One can also formulate a 100% base oil group III oil with good additives and call it a fully synthetic oil. PAO (polyalpha lefin) oils are expensive and POE (polyol ester) base oils are very expensive. Its all about cost. $9.00 per quart oils are not synthetic oils with group IV and group V base oils. $10.50 per quart oils might be all PAO base oils or 2% POE and 98% PAO base oils. As the percentage of POE increases, in conjunction with fully formulated and balanced additives, you will start looking at $12.95 to $14.95 per quart. These MPT Thirty-K oils are of the latter type. But at $13.95 you are using the best oils available. While this might cost you $4.00/quart more than an average group III oil change, for a 6 quart oil change you are talking $24 more, which in my view is a small price to pay to ensure excellent performance and minimal engine wear in your expensive engines. And do not forget, these oils when combined with good oil filters like a Mobil 1 extended performance, K&N Gold, Bosch Distance Plus or Amsoil EAO oil filter will easily go 15,000 mile or more between oil changes. If your goal is to find “mediocre to good” oils at super sale prices with free oil filters, then this is not the place for you. Walmart, AutoZone, etc. have those types of oils and sales. MPT THIRTY-K oils are for those who want the best!
