SN150 Base Oil Supply & Sourcing Guide
SN150 is a trade grade, not a universal specification. Buyers should define viscosity at 40°C and 100°C, viscosity index, flash point, pour point, colour, sulphur and acceptable origin according to the intended lubricant or process-oil formulation.
Specification checklist for the RFQ
- Kinematic viscosity at 40°C and 100°C
- Viscosity index and density
- Flash point, pour point and colour
- Sulphur, carbon residue and volatility where required
Applications and end-use context
- Automotive lubricant blending
- Hydraulic and light industrial oils
- Metalworking and process oils
- Grease and specialty-fluid formulations
Delivery structure and logistics
SN150 may move in bulk tanker, flexitank, IBC or drum. Cleanliness, previous cargo, water ingress, net payload, loading temperature and destination handling affect quality and delivered cost. Packing choice should be made after volume and inland logistics are known.
Prices shown on the site are public market references only. An executable indication depends on specification, origin, destination, Incoterm, freight, insurance and payment structure.
Documents and commercial inputs
- Target specification and recent COA
- Origin and producer or blender identity
- Packing, net weight and loading plan
- Inspection, sealing and delivery requirements
How the inquiry is reviewed
Define product, grade, quantity, destination and timing.
Review specification, documents, logistics assumptions and compliance points.
Where appropriate, summarise possible sourcing or freight routes for the next commercial discussion.
Frequently asked questions
Can SN150 from two origins be blended without testing?
It should not be assumed. Compatibility and the final blended properties should be checked against the formulation target.
Is colour enough to judge SN150 quality?
No. Colour is only one property; viscosity, VI, flash point, pour point, sulphur and stability also matter.
