Gulf Supreme Duty LE 15W-40
Commercial Vehicle Engine Oil
Product Description
Gulf Supreme Duty LE 15W-40 is an extra high performance heavy duty diesel engine oil specifically
developed to extend engine life in the most severe duty on and off-highway applications. The advanced
formulation technology of this product ensures exceptional performance in modern, high output, low
emission engines including those employing Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems, as well as older
engines operating on diesel fuel with low or high sulphur. It meets the latest performance requirements
of major American and European OEMs.
Features & Benefits
Exceptional thermo-oxidative stability reduces engine deposits, sludge build-up and oil thickening
Outstanding soot handling capability minimises soot related viscosity increase and wear
High shear stability maintains viscosity at elevated temperatures leading to improved wear
protection and reduced oil consumption
Superior protection against corrosive wear extends life of engine components
Excellent TBN retention helps in countering harmful effects of corrosive exhaust gases and
extending oil life
Applications
Recommended for use in latest turbocharged and low emission high performance diesel engines
including those employing EGR and meeting US 2004 emission norms introduced in 2002
Recommended for applications in:
a. On-highway trucking applications operating in high speed/high load and short haul pick-
up/delivery vans
b. Off-highway equipment operating in severe low speed/heavy load conditions including those
used in construction, mining and agriculture
Also recommended for high performance gasoline engines and mixed fleet operations
Suitable for application requiring oils meeting API CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4 & CF performance levels
