At which temperature does an oil flow better?
There is no temperature where oil suddenly starts to flow better.
A 10W/40 for example will flow between -25C and 100C or more, but there is some difference in the rate of flow! (True viscosity at -25C is about 7000 Centistoke(cSt) units, dropping to 14 at 100C. ‘Viscosity’ is really just another name for ‘rate of flow’.)
The correct question is at what (sump) temperature is an oil at a viscosity that suits a modern high-RPM engine? Present day designs are happy on an oil viscosity of 10 to 15 cSt. (But many are OK on less than 10.) 30cSt is too high at high RPM. It can lead to foaming, air entrainment and cavitation.
Temp. for 30cSt (DegC)..........Temp. for 15cSt ............Temp. for 10cSt
5W/40.........71.............................90.................................117
10W/40.......70.............................99.................................118
10W/50.......80............................109................................130
10W/60.......89............................119................................142
As you will see from the above table a 5W/40 or a 10W/40 is perfectly adequate for all engines except those that run unusually high temperatures (120degC plus)
Cheers

To kick off Opie Oils new 12 part series of interesting oil facts we thought that we would address the statement “My oil has turned to water!â€
-
A centistoke (cst) is the unit in which viscosity is measured.
The 15w-40 will be very thick when cold compared to hot as all oils thin with heat.
This is why when people say you cannot us a 5w-40, its too thin you must use 10w-40 is bollocks.
Cheers
Guy.
-
10w-40, what does it mean?
We have answered thousands of oil questions in the last 4 years but the most frequently asked one is “What do the numbers mean?â€

Just a reminder to let you know that this expires midnight Thursday.
Get you order in.
