SYNTHETIC BLEND
HEAVY-DUTY ENGINE OIL
BUILT FOR EVERY LOAD.
SAE 10W-30 synthetic blend diesel engine oil for on-highway fleets whose engine makers specify a 10W-30 grade
Bedrock 10W-30 is a synthetic blend heavy-duty diesel engine oil for fleets whose engine makers list a 10W-30 as the grade to run. In a multigrade oil, the first number describes how the oil flows when cold and the second describes how thick it stays at operating temperature. A 10W-30 is lighter than a 15W-40 at both ends. The lighter oil takes less work to pump inside the engine, which is the reason many current on-highway engine makers allow or specify this grade for line-haul and regional fleets.
The grade is for engines that are built to run it. Where the engine maker allows a 10W-30 heavy-duty oil, a heavy-duty oil in this grade does the same work the 15W-40 does: it holds an oil film on bearings and cylinder walls under load and keeps soot in suspension until the drain. Where the maker still calls for a 15W-40, the fleet stays on Bedrock 15W-40. The owner's manual and the maker's lubrication bulletin decide, not the oil shelf.
Bedrock 10W-30 is the companion grade to Bedrock 15W-40. A fleet that runs both can keep the newer on-highway tractors on 10W-30 and the older trucks, pickups and off-road equipment on 15W-40, buying both through one dealer. It is sold in the 1-gallon jug for top-offs, the 55-gallon drum for the shop, and the 275-gallon tote for fleets with bulk oil handling.

Applications
- Line-haul and regional tractors whose engine maker specifies or allows a 10W-30 heavy-duty oil
- Fleets that have moved to a lighter grade where the engine maker allows it
- Day cabs and delivery trucks on stop-and-go routes with frequent starts
- Pickup-and-delivery, LTL and dedicated-route fleets on scheduled oil drains
- Newer diesel pickups and medium-duty trucks whose manual lists 10W-30 as the standard grade
- Mixed fleets running 10W-30 in on-highway tractors alongside Bedrock 15W-40 in older trucks and equipment
Performance
- Pumps and circulates with less effort than a heavier grade, so oil reaches bearings and the turbocharger quickly after start-up
- Holds an oil film on bearings, cylinder walls and the valve train under line-haul loads where the engine maker allows a 10W-30
- Keeps soot and combustion by-products in suspension until the scheduled drain
- Resists oxidation and thickening at sustained highway operating temperatures
- Formulated for use where a 10W-30 heavy-duty diesel engine oil is specified

Frequently asked questions
Can I switch my trucks from 15W-40 to Bedrock 10W-30?
Only if the engine maker lists a 10W-30 heavy-duty oil for your engine model and duty. Many current on-highway engines do; many older engines and most off-road equipment still call for a 15W-40. Check the owner's manual or the maker's lubrication bulletin, and ask your Bedrock dealer if you are not sure.
Is heavy-duty 10W-30 the same as the 10W-30 I put in my car?
No. Bedrock 10W-30 is a heavy-duty diesel engine oil, formulated for the soot load and the high cylinder pressures of diesel truck engines. A passenger-car 10W-30 is built to a different service category. Use the one your engine maker specifies.
Will a lighter oil protect the engine as well as a 15W-40?
Where the engine maker allows a 10W-30, the engine was designed and tested for that grade, and a heavy-duty 10W-30 is formulated for the bearing and ring loads of that engine. Where the maker does not allow it, stay on the 15W-40.
