A PRODUCT OF VALVOLINE A DIVISION OF ASHLAND INC.

VALVOLINE DURABLEND MOTOR OIL

DURABLEND synthetic blend motor oils are formulated with a combination of high-tech synthetic and premium quality conventional basestocks combined with advanced additive technology. DURABLEND motor oils can help engines maintain peak performance longer by providing improved wear control, deposit protection, volatility, and low temperature flow characteristics versus conventional motor oils. DURABLEND motor oils provide protection under severe service conditions and meet the performance requirements of virtually all naturally aspirated, turbocharged and supercharged gasoline passenger cars, including European and Japanese vehicles.
