GC ULTRA PERFORMANCE 5W-40

GC ULTRA PERFORMANCE SAE 5W-40 API SL is a high-performance synthetic blend engine oil designed to offer exceptional thermal endurance and film strength under severe operating conditions across Saudi Arabia. Formulated with robust Group II and synthetic base stocks to guard against high-temperature viscosity breakdown.

Application Category Recommended Service Life / Drain Interval
High-Mileage Gasoline Cars & Light Fleets 6,000 km – 8,000 km (Optimized for demanding KSA highway driving)
Commercial Light Vehicles & Utility Units 220 – 260 Operating Hours (Under high thermal stress)

Note: Actual drain intervals may vary depending on vehicle condition, fuel sulfur levels, severe dust exposure, and OEM engine recommendations.

  • High-Temperature Viscosity Hold: Maintains strong lubricating film under extreme summer heat and heavy load conditions.
  • Engine Cleanliness: Active detergent chemistry prevents deposit and sludge buildup across engine components.
  • Wear Defense: Anti-wear additive barrier protects valve train and bearings during prolonged operation.
  • Low Oil Burn-Off: Resists thermal evaporation, reducing top-up requirements in high-temperature environments.
