Phillips 66 X/C 20W50 Aviation Oil - 55 Gallon Drum

The PN 1045441 is a 55-gallon drum of the Phillips 66 X/C 20W50 aviation oil. 

What is Phillips 66 X/C Aviation Oil?

Phillips 66® X/C Aviation Oil is an ashless dispersant, multi-grade engine oil specially formulated for year-round use in aircraft piston engines. It provides distinct performance benefits compared with single-grade engine oils, including easier starting and faster oil circulation at low temperatures, reduced warm-up time, and reduced oil consumption in most engines. It maintains its film strength under high loads and at high temperatures to protect against wear and piston scuffing. The ashless dispersant formulation helps minimize the formation of engine sludge, varnish, piston deposits, and combustion chamber deposits, resulting in a much cleaner engine compared with the use of straight (nondispersant) mineral oils.

X/C Aviation Oil was the first FAA-approved mineral oil-based, ashless dispersant, multi-viscosity aviation engine oil. It has more than 30 years of outstanding, proven performance in a wide variety of aviation uses, including flight schools, charter, and cargo airlines, acrobatic aircraft, spray planes, race planes, and virtually any other general aviation application. It is available throughout the United States and is exported to other countries around the world.

Aircraft Applications for Phillips 66 X/C Aviation Oil

X/C 20W-50 Aviation Oil is recommended for use in opposed piston engines. It can replace Commercial Grade 65, 80, or 100 single-grade engine oils with no sacrifice in performance.

X/C 25W-60 Aviation Oil is recommended for use in radial piston engines and in other aviation piston engines originally designed to run on heavier-grade oils, such as Commercial Grade 120.

Both viscosity grades are recommended for use during break-in and then as the operational oil until TBO.
