If there were moving parts, the company reasoned that high tech lubes would preserve them longer and help them operate better.
In the early 60s a young fighter pilot A.J. "Al" Amatuzio knew how synthetics worked in the harsh environments that jet aircraft flew in and began the research and development for synthetic lubricants for use in automotive application.
In 1972 AMSOIL SYNTHETIC LUBRICANTS was born with the first API SAE 10W40 100% SYNTHETIC OIL. Sold thru independent dealers AMSOIL was the first with synthetic automatic transmission fluid, synthetic gear lubes, and pioneered extended drain intervals with 40,000km or 1 year.
Unlike the huge oil companies that have recently venture into synthetics, AMSOIL doesn't have a line of conventional products to fall back on if people don't buy synthetics. AMSOIL's expertise in the manufacture of synthetics is unparalleled and AMSOIL's commitment to product quality is absolute.
