What is API SN/CF?
API (American Petroleum Institute) is one of the leading international standards for the assessment of oil performance characteristics. The marking divides oils by their intended use: the letter S is for gasoline engines, the letter C is for diesel engines. The double API SN/CF marking on a canister means that the oil has universal properties and may be used in both engine types – gasoline and diesel.
API SN/CF Key Peculiarities
- High-technology synthetic base guarantees resistance to extreme temperatures and heavy load
- Strict control of the parameters: in accordance with the SN standard, the oil must have a reduced phosphorus content to avoid any damage to modern exhaust gas post-processing systems
- Prominent anti-friction properties and energy-saving capacity as well as carbon deposit and wear minimisation even with biofuel
- Anti-wear and anti-oxidising additives increase the life of your engine as well as oil change periods
- Compatibility with the most advanced filtration systems and catalysts used in the Euro 4 and Euro 5 vehicles
- Stable engine protection both at the maximum load and in severe weather conditions
- Universal oil may be used in different types of machines: from passenger cars to commercial vehicles
