BIO-BASED MOTOR OIL
Castrol's new Edge Bio-Synthetic motor oil is a bio-based lubricant that combines fluid tita-
nium technology with the natural lubricating properties of plants. Made with 25-percent
plant-based oil compounds, the motor oil is formulated to reduce metal-to-metal contact
across a range of different driving speeds, protect the engine for the entire drain inter val and
decrease engine deposit formation. The oil is available in 1- and 5-quart sizes as well as in
viscosity grades that cover the vast majority of American cars.

LUBE FILTER
The new BD50000 lube filter from Baldwin incorporates the compa-
ny's next generation of engineered media for longer life and better
performance in modern engines. It has a 17 percent greater capac-
ity than similar models for longer filter life and a 40 percent lower
restriction at cold starts to improve flow and reduce wear. The filter's
structural stability also helps to ensure durability and prevent con-
taminant leaks. It can be used with Cummins ISX and X15 engines.

VISCOMETERS
Anton Paar's new SVM 4001 Stabinger Viscometer
features a unique double-cell system to determine
viscosity and density at two different tempera-
tures (40 and 100 degrees C) simultaneously. This
ensures fast determination of the viscosity index
from the lowest sample volume. The company also
introduced the SVM 2001 viscometer for conducting
highly precise kinematic and dynamic viscosity mea
-
surements according to ASTM D7042. It is ideal for
any constant temperature viscosity determination
between 15 and 100 degrees C.

DIESEL ENGINE OIL
The new Blue Flame Synthetic Blend diesel engine oils from Champion are
formulated to meet the needs of the next generation of heav y-duty engines.
The oils, which are offered in lower viscosity grades to maximize fuel econ-
omy without compromising durability, are designed to keep diesel engines
running longer by reducing engine wear, preventing high-temperature corro-
sion and controlling abrasive soot contamination. The API FA-4 and CK-4
series oils are a direct replacement for the current API CJ-4 diesel engine oil
specification and will have limited backward compatibility.
