General description of base oil sn500
Base oil SN500 virgin is base oil categorized in group I and is the common quality base oil product of ATDM which is used in different applications in the industry. SN500 base stocks contain less than 90 percent saturates and/or greater than .03 percent sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120.
Uses of SN500
SN500 is used in the manufacturing of many lubricants, producing base oil mostly used as an additive in their other product also blenders and compounders are other uses of base oil in different grades as well, mostly base oil added from 1% up to 20% as an additive to other products. base oil used in different oils as well as engine oil, motor oil, hydraulic oil, gear oil, and …
Packing of SN500
SN500 packed in new or used 180 kg drums, iso tanks, flexi tanks, and bulk shipments. Each 20-foot container takes 80 drums.
Guaranty/warranty of oil SN500
ATDM guaranty the quality of virgin SN500 with the arrangement of an international inspector to check the quality and quantity of virgin SN500 during the loading to the vessel and control the production by QC by batch test report before shipping. ATDM guarantees the quality to meet with ASTM.
