Why Classic Vehicles Need Specialist Lubricants
Many classic and vintage vehicles were designed before modern lubricant technologies and specifications were introduced. They may require oils with different additive packages, higher viscosity grades or formulations that are compatible with older seals, bearings and engine components. Using the correct lubricant helps reduce unnecessary wear and supports reliable operation.
Choosing the Correct Lubricant
The most suitable lubricant will depend on the age of the vehicle, engine design and manufacturer recommendations. Selecting the correct viscosity grade and specification helps maintain oil pressure, protect internal components and ensure the lubricant performs as intended under normal operating conditions.

Depending on the application, you may also require Passenger Car Motor Oils, Automotive Gear Oils, Hypoid Gear Oils, Hydraulic Oils or Greases to lubricate different systems throughout the vehicle. Using the correct lubricant for each component helps maintain reliability while preserving original mechanical parts.
