PENRITE Shelsley Light 20W60 Mineral

Product Description

SHELSLEY LIGHT is a premium mineral, 20W-60, high zinc, very low detergent engine oil designed specifically for petrol, kerosene and diesel fuelled vintage, pre-war and post-war vehicles manufactured to 1950. It features a double layer of engine wear protection with high zinc and increased operating temperature viscosity over monograde oils.

Application

SHELSLEY LIGHT is suitable for passenger cars, motorcycles, 4WDs, light and heavy duty commercial vehicles (trucks, buses and heavy equipment), tractors and industrial machines that originally specified a SAE 30 monograde engine oil, fitted with or without an engine oil filter. Those vehicles requiring higher detergency should use Penrite Classic Light Engine Oil.

It is a SAE 20W-60 engine oil for vehicles that specified SAE 30 grade engine oils. Suitable for small capacity vintage engines relying totally on splash lubrication, and small capacity sleeve valve engined cars such as Minerva, Mors, Knight and Daimler. Can be used for vehicles operating in cooler ambient temperatures.

Ideal for early vintage (pre-1950) motorcycles incorporating sight glasses, pilgrim oil pumps and total loss lubrication systems. Suitable for motorcycles fitted with a wet clutch.

SHELSLEY LIGHT contains a special additive pack suited to vintage vehicles of the era. It exceeds the specification requirements of the original oils, offering greater engine protection. Features a standard multigrade cold temperature SAE viscosity grade with an increased operating temperature range. Multigrade oils provide better start-up and operating temperature protection than monograde oils and do not need to be changed seasonally.

It is an API SC/CC grade oil with very low detergent levels and HIGH ZINC levels for added anti-wear protection for older engines. Contains a “Tacky Additive” so engine oil doesn’t run off internal surfaces when laid up, combined with an increased level of rust inhibitor for protection during storage.

NOTE: When changing oil, Penrite recommend using Penrite Engine Flush — a fast acting, solvent free engine cleaning formulation that removes engine deposits, sludge and contaminants. Contains added zinc for wear protection and works in 10 minutes.
