Synthetic motor oils have been on the market for many years. Most major oil companies have introduced their version of synthetic motor oil. All of these oils are blended using commercially available additive packages pre-approved for read across API certification. These additive packages are blended to produce the lowest possible cost oil that will pass the selected API certification requirements. This is the reason motor oils, including synthetics, are all very similar (EXCEPT ALISYN).

Performance

N/A Alisyn synthetic motor oils are blended to give the highest possible performance, regardless of cost.We use expensive ingredients that make it impossible to compete, basedon cost, with most other motor oils on the market. Alisyn motor oilsare designed for high performance race engines, not the small testengines used for API certification.

The large difference in pricebetween Alisyn products and other lesser brands of lubricants has ledpeople to ask why they should spend more money for Alisyn products. There are several very good reasons.

Shear Stability Other Synthetics Alisyn
ASTM D-3945B 8 - 12% 4.0%


The highest shear rates for an oil occur in the bearings of an engine. You will get the best bearing protection from an oil that exhibits less viscosity shear down. This translates directly to longer bearing and engine life, and makes it possible to use lower viscosity oils.

ASTM-D4172 Other Synthetics Alisyn
Coefficient of Friction 0.07 0.04


The use of Alisyn oil will cut internal frictional losses by almost half compared to other synthetics. This translates directly to less wear, more power, and better fuel economy.

Falex Test Other Synthetics Alisyn
ASTM D-2625 Boundary lubrication Falex test, (fail load)/(PSI @ load) 3500lb/79,111 @3250 4500lb/202,386 @4250

The Falex test separates the men from the boys when it comes to wear prevention. The Falex fail load is 1,000 lbs. higher for Alisyn compared to other synthetics. In addition, Alisyn oils produce much smaller wear scars at the pre-failure load stage of 4,250 lbs. compared to other synthetic oils, as indicated by the much higher calculated pressure (PSI). This means Alisyn oils will carry a much higher load before you get metal-to-metal contact. All of our engine and gear oils, even at the lowest oil viscosity, carry the same high 4,000 lb to 4,500 lb Falex sliding loads. This means that lower viscosity Alisyn oils can safely be used in race engines, materially reducing power losses from pumping high viscosity engine oils. No other manufacturers make this claim.
The Racing Environment - The Final Test. For the last 20 years Alisyn oils have proven themselves time and time again in the real world racing environment. Just ask any of our loyal customers.

Applications

N/A Alisyn ProDrive 21 Type 1 is race proven in the most demanding racing environments from Indy Cars, GTP Lights, SCCA Endurance Cars, Pro Stock, and Pro Modified drag cars, to high performance marine engines. The additive package was formulated to give exceptional load carrying capabilities (+4500 lb. Falex loads) while offering superior oxidation stability compared to other lubricants on the market. Customers report reduced operating temperatures up to 45 ºF when compared to conventional lubricants and up to 30 ºF compared to other synthetic motor oils. These performance characteristics result in operating efficiency increases of up to 15%.
