High Quality Oil Guaranteed Best Motor Oil on the market

As anyone who has tried AMSOIL synthetic lubricants knows, AMSOIL offers the highest-quality products on the market. A large part of the success AMSOIL has achieved is due to technical and chemical innovations that have set industry standards in lubrication. But consistency in quality is another large part of the value that AMSOIL lubricants offer. Every product that leaves the AMSOIL manufacturing plant is subject to the same rigorous testing to insure quality control.

Quality control at AMSOIL begins long before blending begins. Maintaining a clean and controlled working environment is a large part of insuring quality products. At AMSOIL every container and system used for producing, transporting and packaging product is kept in the cleanest possible condition. Each tanker that will transport AMSOIL products is tested by the lab to insure that water and other contaminants are thoroughly removed and will not jeopardize the integrity of the products. If contaminants are found, the tanker is cleaned until it passes testing. In addition, AMSOIL only uses new drums and even these are tested for contaminants.

Any incoming chemicals and additives are also subjected to the same series of tests that finished AMSOIL products receive. As soon as they arrive, incoming products are quarantined until testing determines whether or not they meet quality standards. Anything that does not meet AMSOIL standards is refused and shipped back. Filtration systems in holding tanks also insure that chemicals do not become contaminated while being stored for processing.

During the blending of base stocks and additives, two sixteen-ounce samples are drawn from each batch and examined by the blenders. If anything is visibly wrong with the oil, the process is stopped and tests are conducted on blending equipment. If the samples pass this visual examination they are sent on to the chemists.Next, chemists test both samples in the lab. This testing is conducted to make sure that each batch of oil meets AMSOIL specifications, which are often much tighter than standards set for other lubricant manufacturers.After a batch has been properly blended, it is sent to packaging. Here the lubricant is bottled and then boxed or put into drums and totes. At this stage, the lab draws another set of samples which will be tested by the chemists. If this testing reveals any inconsistencies, the batch is restarted from the beginning. If it passes this second series of tests, the chemists and blenders sign off on a production board. This helps to keep track of each batch produced and any inconsistencies that were reported. If any problems with products should occur after shipping, AMSOIL has a system for tracking which batch the product originated from. Each product contains a batch code on its packaging that can be traced to which batch the product came from, when it was produced and who worked on it.

Why is quality control so important to AMSOIL? The simple answer is that quality control insures quality products. Customers can be sure that every quart, gallon, drum and tote of product that leaves the AMSOIL manufacturing plant is consistent with AMSOIL specifications and will perform as expected. Many other lubricant manufacturers whose quality standards do not match those of AMSOIL cannot make these claims.

In fact, past studies of bottles of motor oil with the same brand name label but produced and bottled in different locations revealed that consistency can vary considerably by location. Most national brands are blended and packaged at different contracted oil companies around the country. They depend on someone else to do their quality control. Bottles of motor oil with the same brand name purchased on opposite ends of the country had different chemical properties and were even visibly a different color! These oils could not be expected to perform in the same ways and therefore should not have been bottled under the same label.

Quality control at AMSOIL insures that lubricants will perform as expected and that labeling and packaging will be correct. Since all AMSOIL lubricants are produced from the same factory, AMSOIL products will not vary according to the area they are purchased in. For these reasons and many more, AMSOIL continues to be
