Information

RAVENOL USVO® REP Racing Extra Performance 5W-30 Racing Engine Oil:

Is a modern, fully synthetic, fuel-saving, low friction multigrade engine oil with USVO technology developed for the latest generation of race and rally engines. It has full OEM approval from Mercedes-Benz, Renault, GM and BMW. This oil is not only impressive as a result of its low sulphate ash content but also offers reduced HTHS viscosity for measurable fuel savings, even when driven hard. It therefore not only reduces the amount of fuel carried (and therefor weight) but also contributes to reducing emissions and protecting the environment. The incredibly low shear rate of RAVENOL USVO® Racing Engine Oils is a major factor in dramatically reducing fuel dilution when running at full throttle.

As a result of the use of special tungsten based additives, RAVENOL USVO REP 5W-30 Racing Engine Oil provides the ultimate protection when driving on the limit. It utilizes the positive properties of tungsten to smooth the surface structure of the motor, reducing friction and wear, and significantly improving mechanical efficiency. It provides a safe layer of lubrication, even at very high operating temperatures and provides extensive protection against corrosion (oxidation) and foaming.

This popular racing engine oil has been trusted and recommended by teams in the BTCC and by many of our other motorsport partners for years.

The BTC RACING (2019) team have placed first at the BTCC running on Ravenol oil. Having faith in our oil, Ravenol UK are official partners of Restart Racing for the 2024 British Touring Cars Championship.

Treat your car to RAVENOL USVO REP 5W-30 Racing Engine Oil, good enough for BTCC teams its more than good enough for your car!

Please Note: To guarantee optimal engine performance, avoid mixing with other synthetic or mineral lubricants.

USVO Technology

Ravenol has made it their mission to master the technological challenges of the future of lubricants and have therefore developed the ultimate in automotive lubrication technology......USVO® 

 

What is USVO® technology?

Lubricant requirements for modern vehicles are becoming increasingly demanding, with unwanted changes in viscosity quickly causing serious problems. To counter this, Ravenol has developed the USVO® lubricant technology to provide a very high viscosity stability at both high and low temperatures. To achieve this only the highest quality fully synthetic base oils and additives are used. USVO® stands for Ultra Strong Viscosity Oil.

 

 

THANKS TO THE IDEAL COMBINATION OF COMPONENTS, RAVENOL HAS CREATED FORMULATIONS WITH THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS: 

• EXCELLENT HIGH TEMPERATURE VISCOSITY (HTHS AT 150 °C)Barely any viscosity loss during operation, which means that the lubricant film is permanently maintained during operation.

• EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AT LOW TEMPERATURES (CCS AT -30 °C)The lubricant is always flows freely so that direct engine lubrication is guaranteed even for cold starts.

• VERY GOOD OXIDATION STABILITYOxidation stable lubricants have increased resistance against reacting with oxygen and temperatures. This increases the lubricant service life, which permanently prevents deposits (sludge) and maintains the lubrication properties.

• VERY LOW LOSSES DUE TO EVAPORATIONOnly a few components of the oil evaporate at the high operating temperatures. As a result, the engine oil level drops only slightly and the environment is not additionally polluted by the gases.

• HIGH VISCOSITY INDEXA high viscosity index illustrates a reduced temperature-dependent viscosity change compared to a low viscosity index.

• VERY LOW POUR POINTThe pour point is the lowest temperature above which an oil is liquid. As a result, lubrication is guaranteed, even at the lowest temperatures. Even if we never get temperatures this low in the UK, the lower the pour point, the better the quality of the lubricant.

• LESS FRICTION
 A dramatic reduction in friction compared to conventional oils releases more power from your engine

 

PROPERTIES OF THE RAVENOL-USVO® QUALITIES


 

Thanks to their technical properties, RAVENOL USVO® lubricants optimise engine performance and noticeably reduce fuel consumption at the same time. This benefits the environment, as lower fuel consumption leads to reduced CO2 emissions.


 

CCS = Low temperature viscosity

PP = Temperature of loss of fluidity

MRV = Low temperature viscosity when pumping through

SSI = Mechanical shear strength
