Beneficial Qualities

All-Weather Performance
  • Offers reliable performance and wear protection in heavy-duty diesel engines
  • Achieves flow during cold startups, providing lubrication during critical early minutes
  • Eliminates need for overnight auxiliary heaters, unless under extremely cold conditions
  • Maintains film strength at operating temperatures
Cost Reductions
  • Decreases fuel consumption by 1-3% over SAE 15W-40 oils
  • Extends oil drain intervals* with specified filter changes and periodic oil analysis (ask your LE consultant about the Xamine® Oil Analysis Program)
Greener Technology
  • Specially formulated to meet API CK-4 standards for low-emission engines
  • Compatible for use with biodiesel containing fuels
  • Compatible for use in vehicles equipped with diesel particulate filters
  • Works in conjunction with EGR engines to manage soot and other exhaust contaminants
  • Low SAPS formula minimizes poisoning of SCR systems and particulate filtration traps

Proprietary Additive

LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Monolec Ultra® Syn Heavy Duty Engine Oil contains Monolec.

Monolec® wear-reducing additive creates a single molecular lubricating film on metal surfaces, vastly increasing oil film strength without affecting clearances. An invaluable component in LE’s engine oils, industrial oils and many of its other lubricants, Monolec allows opposing surfaces to slide by one another, greatly reducing friction, heat and wear.
