Base Oil Group II 600N

Description

1. Product Overview

Base Oil Group II 600N is a high-viscosity, hydroprocessed mineral oil with over 90% saturates and sulfur content below 0.03%, offering superior oxidation resistance compared to Group I oils. It is primarily used as a base stock for heavy-duty engine oils, gear oils, and industrial circulating fluids. The key value proposition is extended equipment life and reduced maintenance frequency due to higher thermal stability and lower volatility. Strategically, it enables lubricant blenders to meet modern API, ACEA, and JASO specifications while optimizing total cost of ownership in severe-duty applications.

2. Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Chemical composition: Hydrotreated heavy paraffinic distillate; saturates ≥90%, sulfur ≤0.03%

• Purity level: API Group II, ≥99% base oil content

• Physical characteristics: Clear, bright liquid; viscosity index (VI) 95–110; kinematic viscosity @40°C: 110–125 cSt; @100°C: 10.8–11.5 cSt; flash point (COC) ≥240°C; pour point ≤ -9°C

• Packaging options: Bulk vessel, ISO tanks, flexitanks (20’ container), or new steel drums (180–200 kg)

• Shelf life: 24 months in sealed, dry, contamination-free storage, away from direct heat

3. Core Industrial Applications

• Primary industries: Automotive lubricant blending, industrial manufacturing, marine lubricants, power generation

• Operational use cases: Formulating high-performance diesel engine oils (CK-4, FA-4), heavy-duty gear oils (GL-4/GL-5), hydraulic fluids (ISO VG 100–150), and compressor lubricants

• Performance advantage: Outperforms Group I in oxidation life (≥50% longer per ASTM D943) and reduces sludge formation; lower volatility (≤13% Noack) than competitive Group II 600N means less top-up oil consumption.

• Efficiency/cost: Allows formulators to reduce antioxidant additive dosage by 15–20%, lowering raw material costs while meeting OEM drain interval requirements.

4. Competitive Advantages

• Quality consistency: ISO 9001:2025 certified batch-to-batch uniformity with full GC-MS fingerprinting and Viscosity Index control within ±2 points

• Supply reliability: Multiple refinery sources and strategic warehousing ensure 99.5% on-time delivery even during market tightness

• Logistics capability: Dedicated bulk fleet and global container network with real-time tracking; 7-day average lead time to major ports (Rotterdam, Houston, Singapore, Jebel Ali)

• Price competitiveness: Direct refinery contracting removes 2–3 intermediary layers; volume-based tiered pricing available

• Sustainability: Low sulfur, low PAH content supports eco-label lubricant certification; compatible with re-refining streams

5. Commercial & Supply Information

• Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): 20 MT (one bulk truck or ISO tank)

• Loading capacity per container: 24 MT per 20’ dry container (flexitank), 26 MT per ISO tank, 20 MT per 20’ bulk liquid container (with liner)
