Brad Penn Lubricants Renames Oil Line

Brad Penn Lubricants recently renamed its Penn Grade 1 Racing Oil line to Penn Grade 1 High Performance Oils.

The Penn Grade 1 Racing Oil line was introduced in 2001. With the reduction of zinc and phosphorous in a majority of oils, the Penn Grade 1 Oils have gained popularity within the classic, historic, vintage, muscle car and hot rod markets, which led to the name change.

The Penn Grade 1 lubricant line is also blended with a cut coming off the fractionalization tower that enables the oil to cling, which provides tremendous protection to flat tappet and roller cams, bearings and other critical parts within the engine.

The name change occurred only on labels and cartons; the traditional Penn Grade 1 formula remained untouched.

Brad Penn Grade 1 High Performance Oils are formulated in seven viscosity grades: partial synthetic 0W-30, partial synthetic 10W-30, partial synthetic 20W-50, SAE 40, SAE 50, NITRO 70 and SAE 30 Break-In Oil.
