Excellent Anti Rust Performance in Marine Engines
Marine engines are prone to rust, leading to uncontrolled wear and premature engine failure. However, good rust protection is not natural to engine oil. It comes only by design. AMSOIL Formula 4 Stroke Synthetic Marine Oils are fortified with a special anti-rust agent, even more than required to pass stringent NMMA FC-W anti-rust test.
Superior Protection Against Engine Wear
Marine engines operate under high loads and RPMs for extended periods of time, causing traditional automotive oils to break down and lose viscosity. While automobile engines normally operate at around 2,500 rpm, outboard motors can run twice as fast, requiring greater levels of wear protection and better bearing durability than automobiles. To ensure good protection, the NMMA set minimum shear stability requirements for FC-W. AMSOIL Formula 4 Stroke Synthetic Marine Oils greatly exceed the FC-W shear stability requirements, outperforming competitive oils to deliver a superior lubricating film.
Four stroke outboards feature vertically mounted crankshafts, limiting oil retention at shutdown and increasing the likelihood of dry starts and accelerated wear. AMSOIL Formula 4 Stroke Marine Oils contain a high concentration of premium-quality anti-wear additives that provide an extra level of wear control upon start-up (see Four Ball Wear Test graph below).

Wear Comparison

In the Four Ball Wear Test, lubricants with low scores offer the best protection.
AMSOIL Marine Oils have the lowest scores of all the motor oils tested.
Exceeds Both the API and NMMA FC-W Requirements for Shear Stability
In addition to be subjected to higher RPMs, prolonged idling and low operating temperatures contribute to fuel dilution, further thinning the oil. To ensure adequate protection for their engines, marine engine manufacturers set minimum high-temperature/high-shear (HTHS) viscosity limits. AMSOIL Formula 4 Stroke Synthetic Marine Oils are shear stable and formulated with sophisticated oil additive chemistry, exceeding the HTHS requirements of both the API and NMMA FC-W (see High-Temp/High-Shear Test graph below).
