Additional Engine Oil Viscosities
In addition to common viscosity grades such as 0W-20, 5W-30 or 10W-40, there are several special viscosity grades designed for unique engine concepts, performance applications or older vehicles. These oils meet requirements that go beyond standard viscosity classes.
In this category you will find engine oils in specialized viscosity grades such as 0W-08, 0W-12, 0W-16, 0W-40, 5W-20, 5W-50, 10W-50, 10W-60 and 20W-50 – ideal for modern eco-engines, high-performance vehicles, motorcycles or classic cars.
Examples of Additional Viscosity Grades
Vehicle Compatibility
These viscosity grades are often used in special engines – including hybrid vehicles, performance engines, motorcycles, classic cars, commercial vehicles or engines with unique manufacturer specifications.
Why Viscosity Matters
Each viscosity grade offers specific flow characteristics at cold and hot temperatures. Special viscosity grades ensure optimal protection when standard oils are not sufficient – for example under extreme temperatures, high RPM or in older engine designs.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions About Additional Viscosities
Which viscosity grades are included in this category?
This category includes 0W-08, 0W-12, 0W-16, 0W-40, 5W-20, 5W-50, 10W-50, 10W-60 and 20W-50.
When are special viscosity grades needed?
When the engine has unique requirements – such as high temperatures, sporty driving, high mileage or specific manufacturer specifications.
Can I simply use a different viscosity?
No, viscosity must always match the manufacturer’s specifications. Using the wrong viscosity can cause engine damage.
Are special viscosity grades more expensive?
Often yes, because they are designed for specific applications and contain specialized additive packages.
Which viscosity is the right one?
The correct viscosity is always listed in the vehicle manual or manufacturer specifications and should be followed exactly.
