AMS OIL vs amsoil ogo in red white and blue

AMS Oil Is AMSOIL

If you're searching for "AMS Oil," spelling it out as "A M S oil," or looking for a product you've heard called "AMS" — You might think the product line is called "AMS" — like Mobil 1 Oil or Castrol Oil. But the brand name is you're looking for is AMSOIL. It's one brand name, not separate letters or an abbreviation.

AMSOIL is a premium synthetic lubricant trusted by fleet operators, mechanics, and diesel enthusiasts across North America since 1972.

The official name is AMSOIL, not AMS Oil. But if that's what you typed, you found the right place.

Why the Confusion?

AMSOIL is the brand name of synthetic lubricants developed by Lieutenant Colonel Albert J. Amatuzio in 1972. It's easy to shorten to "AMS" in conversation or texts, which is why you might see it written informally as "AMS Oil." But the official brand name is always AMSOIL.
