Mobil Jet Oil 387 now approved for Pratt & Whitney’s PurePower PW1100G-JM and PW1400G-JM Geared Turbofan engines

ExxonMobil has relesed that Mobil Jet Oil 387, a synthetic High Performance Capability turbine engine oil, has been approved by Pratt & Whitney for use in its PurePower PW1100G-JM and PW1400G-JM Geared Turbofan engines. PurePower PW1100G-JM engines power the A320neo aircraft, while the PW1400G-JM is used on the Irkut MC-21 mid-range airliner. “With its exceptional load-carrying capabilities and ability to maintain film thickness between moving components, Mobil Jet Oil 387 is well suited to protect the advanced gearboxes used in PW1100G-JM and PW1400G-JM engines from demanding operating conditions,” said Vipin Rana, global aviation lubricants sales manager at ExxonMobil. In addition to its load-carrying capabilities, Mobil Jet Oil 387 delivers a combination of benefits that have never before been achieved with an HTS or HPC turbine oil, including outstanding deposit control, oxidative stability, seal compatibility and wear protection, as well as low temperature fluidity. Since its introduction in late 2012, Mobil Jet Oil 387 has accumulated nearly one million hours of on-wing performance. It is now being used to protect more than 250 aircraft operated by carriers around the world.
