Re-refined Base Stock Oils
Re-refined basestock oils are acceptable for use in Cat engines IF these oils meet the performance requirements that are specified by Caterpillar. Re-refined basestock oils can be used exclusively in finished oil or in a combination with new basestock oils. The US military specifications and the specifications of other heavy equipment manufacturers also allow the use of re-refined basestock oils that meet the same criteria.
The process that is used to make re-refined basestock oil should adequately remove all wear metals that are in the used oil and all additives that are in the used oil. Vacuum distillation and the hydrotreating of the used oil are acceptable processes that are used for producing a re-refined base oil.
Note: Just filtering is inadequate for the production of re-refined basestock oils from used oil.
