The History

Picture
ALBERT J. AMATUZIO
As a jet fighter squadron commander Lieutenant Colonel Albert J. Amatuzio had ample opportunity to witness synthetic lubricants in action. These oils are used exclusively in jet engines because of three extraordinary performance characteristics: an ability to reduce friction and wear on engine components, an ability to function dependably at severe temperature extremes and an ability to  withstand rigorous and lengthy engine operation without  chemical breakdown. Recognizing that these same benefits would probe invaluable in combustion engines, Al Amatuzio formulated the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet API service requirements for automobile engines.
The new lubricant performed like no other before it. When the first can of AMSOIL 10W-40 appeared on the market in 1972, it signaled the birth of an entire industry.
AMSOIL synthetic lubricants have expanded the boundaries of lubrication science 
and redefined the performance possibilities of modern machinery and engines.
