Gulf Western Oil, the Game Changer!

Gulf Western Oil, Australia’s largest 100% locally owned lubricants manufacturer and proud CMPA member is no stranger to the quarry and mining industries, delivering solid and reliable products for over 30 years now.

Back in 2013, managing directors Ben and Andrew Vicary took this already impressive service to a whole new level, starting with a clean slate and building a brand new state of the art manufacturing plant. Fully computerised and stainless hardware equipped, the level of sophistication, technology, storage capability and the team’s global experience housed within this huge facility is a sight to behold for anyone lucky enough to secure a factory tour.

Technology and protection beyond CK-4

Gulf Western offers a vast range of high-end products within its range, but its latest offering, the all new TOP DOG Indestructible 15W-40 CK-4 is seen as a real Game Changer for Heavy Duty Diesel engine lubrication. This uncompromising, next-generation Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil contains ground breaking Indestructible additive technology specifically designed to protect high powered, turbocharged Heavy Duty Diesel Engines. The unique formulation contains performance enhancing and superior wear protection technology that far exceeds the requirements of the latest API CK-4 lubricant specification.

TOP DOG Indestructible 15W-40 CK-4 meets the requirements of most modern engine manufacturers’ specifications, and being backwards compatible with API CJ-4, CI-4 and CH-4 means that it will also suit most older style heavy-duty diesel engines. Having a low SAPS level, it is also suitable for Diesel engines fitted with EGR, DPF and SCR/Ad Blue.

This ground breaking new product has seen years of research and development both in Australia and overseas that has culminated into measurable and repeatable real-world results, offering Heavy Duty Diesel engine operators increased service intervals, dramatically decreased engine wear, increased fuel efficiency through reduced friction, increased shear stability resulting in decreased oil consumption, and better dispersancy compared to conventional API CK-4 and CJ-4 specifications, resulting in cleaner engines that offer increased service life. Most importantly, TOP DOG Indestructible 15W-40 CK-4 offers improved reliability and less downtime, increasing profitability in the long term for the end user.

As testament, long time Gulf Western Oil customers such as Blenners Transport with their fleet of 160 trucks and 220 refrigerated trailers have been using Gulf Western products with solid, repeatable and dependable results.

Blenners

Blenners Fleet Maintenance 2ic Cassidy Waina says “We’ve been using Gulf Western for seven years now, for all our lubrication needs, including engines, transmissions, final drives, grease and power steering fluids. It’s a fantastic product, and overall we couldn’t be happier”. Blenners Fleet Maintenance Manager John McKnight added, “We’ve been using the new TOP DOG Indestructible 15W-40 CK-4 with spectacular results, using additional bypass filtration with a careful approach including constant oil analysis and sampling, we’re now seeing oil drain intervals as high as 60,000 km. This has reduced the amount of labour we have to put out in our workshop with the trucks presenting less often for B and C services, further increasing profitability on the bottom line”.

With real-world repeatable and measurable results like this, it’s not hard to see why Gulf Western Oil and its products such as Top Dog Indestructible 15W-40 CK-4 are becoming so popular within the transport, industrial, mining, quarry and earthmoving sectors. Lubrication technology like this was deemed near impossible not so long ago, so it really is an exciting time for Gulf Western Oil and its customers.
