Synthetic Blend Oils

A perfect balance of protection and value: synthetic blend oils for everyday engine performance.

Why Choose Synthetic Blend Oils?

Synthetic blend oils combine the base of conventional engine oils with a portion of synthetic technology, giving drivers and fleet managers a balance of affordability and enhanced performance where OEM specifications allow.  Unlike conventional oils, which may break down more quickly under high stress, synthetic blends provide better protection against wear, oxidation, and deposits. While they don’t offer the full extended-drain performance of full synthetic oils, they deliver a cost-effective middle ground for those who want stronger protection than conventional engine oils without paying for a full synthetic. These blends are widely used in both gasoline and diesel engines, making them a versatile choice for everyday drivers and professional operators alike. Before use, always check your original manual to ensure synthetic blends are safe in your engine.

Best Uses for Synthetic Blend Motor Oils

Synthetic blend oils are especially well-suited for vehicles and equipment that operate under mixed conditions. High-mileage cars benefit from the added oxidation resistance, while turbocharged gasoline direct injection (TGDI) engines see reduced risks of low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI). Fleets with flex-fuel vehicles, agricultural machinery, or construction equipment also rely on synthetic blends for their balance of durability and cost efficiency. They are effective in cold-start situations, where oil must flow quickly, and in stop-and-go traffic that creates additional heat stress. For passenger car applications, our synthetic blend PCMO collection offers options tailored for modern engines.

Explore Our Presidential Synthetic Blend Oils

Presidential’s synthetic blend lineup includes the most widely used viscosity grades: 5W20, 5W30, 10W30, and 15W40. Each grade is formulated with an advanced additive package that offers LSPI protection, oxidation resistance, and improved fuel economy. The lighter viscosities (5W20 and 5W30) are well-suited for late-model passenger vehicles requiring fuel efficiency and strong cold-start performance. The 10W30 grade provides versatile coverage across a mix of light trucks and SUVs, while the 15W40 option is designed to meet the needs of mixed fleets and diesel operators. All are proudly made in Cleveland, Ohio, and available in bulk packaging such as 5-gallon pails and 55-gallon drums for shop and fleet convenience.

Applications Across Industries and Conditions

Because synthetic blend oils balance strength with cost-effectiveness, they serve a wide range of industries. Auto repair shops often use them as a go-to recommendation for customers who want reliable oil changes without the premium price tag. Fleet managers value their long-drain capabilities, while agriculture and construction operators rely on them for equipment that runs under heavy loads. Hybrid and import vehicles also benefit from their broad compatibility. For diesel fleet operators, our heavy duty diesel oils provide additional protection designed for high-torque, high-stress conditions.
