Group I base oils

Group I base oils are a type of crude oil-based lubricant oil derived from mineral sources. They are produced using traditional refining methods, resulting in a mixture with moderate purity and quality. These oils contain higher levels of impurities and sulfur compared to other groups, but they are still effective for many lubrication needs like engine oils and industrial applications. Group I oils are generally more affordable but may require additives to enhance performance and protect engines or equipment. They are suitable for less demanding uses where extreme conditions aren’t present.
