Protect your investment in diesel power engines and confidently extend drain intervals with our high-quality synthetic diesel oil. AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil 5W-30 delivers 6X improved wear protection than required in accordance with the Detroit Diesel DD13 Scuffing Test for Specification DFS 93K222. Advanced synthetic technology provides excellent vyscocity control and exceptional severe heat performance, while minimizing oil consumption. The result: protection that’s improved to the max.

Fleet Use

AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil 5W-30 was designed with fleets in mind.  Outperforming conventional 15W-40, AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil 5W-30 was engineered to compatible with the wide range use of equipment used in today's modern fleets.

Diesel scuffing test shows AMSOIL superiority

Max Duty Engine Protection

Abrasion on rings and cylinder liners leads to an increase in oil consumption and loss of compression.  Resulting in decreased horsepower and fuel economy. Independent testing shows AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty 5W-30 provides 6X more wear protection*.  Offering the security of delivering your diesel the extra protection it deserves.

*Based on independent testing in the Detroit Diesel DD13 Scuffing Test for specification DFS 93K222.

Vyscocity Control

Utilizing top-tier synthetic base oils, AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty 5W-30 is naturally resistant to the oxidation and the thickening impacts of soot contamination. That, along with improved detergent/dispersant additives keeps soot particles suspended individually.  Helping prevent the development of greater, wear-causing particles. Vyscocity increase is minimized, and soot-related wear is controlled. Lower volatility also helps Signature Series Max-Duty 5W-30 retain its vyscocity after high-temperature service for max engine protection as well as efficiency.

Excels at Extreme Temperatures

AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil 5W-30 resists thermal (heat) breakdown better than conventional and competing synthetic diesel oils. In contrast to conventional oils, Signature Series does not contain wax, staying fluid in sub-zero temperatures for easier starting, increased oil flow and reduced wear.

AMSOIL Oil consumption comparison

Minimizes Oil Consumption

AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty has a low rate of volatility, or burn-off, reducing oil consumption. During operation less oil vapor passes into the combustion chamber. It provides up to 76 percent less oil consumption than required by the API CK-4 standard in the Caterpillar-1N oil consumption test.

COMPATIBILITY

AMSOIL Signature Series Max-Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil 5W-30 is compatible with other conventional and synthetic engine oils. Mixing AMSOIL diesel oils with other oils, though, will shorten the oil’s life expectancy and decrease the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed.

  • Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL synthetic diesel oils.

SERVICE LIFE

Diesel Engine Service Life

Heavy-Duty On-/Off-Road: Three times (3X) OEM1 recommendation, not to exceed 60,000 miles (96,000 km)/600 hours or one year, whichever comes first.

Turbodiesel Pickup: Two times (2X) OEM1 recommendation, not to exceed 25,000  miles (40,000 km) or one year, whichever comes first.

Gasoline Engine Service Life
Two times (2X) OEM1 recommendation, not to exceed 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or one year, whichever comes first.

Drain intervals may be extended further with oil analysis.

1Refer to your owner’s manual for OEM drain interval recommendations and guidelines for severe and normal service.

Note: Extended drain intervals are not recommended for performance-modified engines, when using biofuels containing more than 10 percent ethanol or 15 percent biodiesel (B15) or for 2007-2009 Caterpillar* C13 and C15 on-highway engines. Extend drain intervals beyond OEM recommendations in these instances only with oil analysis. Note: 2007-2010 Dodge**, Ford** and GM** turbodiesel pickups are also not recommended for extended drain intervals when using DHD.
