5W-20

The designation 5W‑20 in the SAE J300 system indicates a cold viscosity of 5 (it behaves like 5‑W at –30 °C) and a density of 20 cSt at 100 °C, providing rapid oil flow during cold start and a sufficient protective film at operating temperatures. This low‑viscosity oil is primarily intended for modern gasoline engines with direct injection, turbocharging and high compression ratios, which require fuel economy and minimal friction. It is fully compatible with catalysts and three‑way exhaust cleaning systems (low‑SAPS formulas), and is also safely used in gasoline engines equipped with DPF in hybrid models. For diesel units with DPF or SCR, other viscosities are usually recommended, so 5W‑20 should be selected only according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. On Xenum.ua you will find two products that match this viscosity – XENUM SEMIX 5W20 for turbocharged engines and XENUM ECO PRO DX1 5W20, both synthetic and meeting the requirements of modern technologies.
