Castrol Brayco 460 Mineral Oil for Legacy Engines

Legacy jet engines have been in service for decades at this point, and engine oil is a big part of why they are still in the air operating reliably. Brayco 460 is a mineral-oil-based oil that is a preferred choice for the legacy jet engines still operating around the world. Here's what it is and why you should use it!

A Mineral Jet Engine Oil for Legacy Jet Engines

Castrol Brayco 460 is a petroleum-based turbine oil for jet engines and high-speed turbines for older jet engines. It’s a jet engine lubricating oil that has excellent deposit control and hydrolytic stability for high-performance applications. Brayco 460 is formulated to the highest standards with a highly refined mineral base oil. It’s for use in aircraft engines, including gas turbine engines and other high-speed turbines. It’s compatible with applications that require low temperature operation and good viscosity.

Properties

Brayco 460 is a petroleum-based turbine oil that meets MIL-PRF-6081E, Grade 1010 specification, so it is a great choice for jet engine operations. It has excellent thermal stability and corrosion protection for longer engine life and less wear. It’s designed for severe service operations, including high temperatures and low temperatures. Brayco 460 is qualified to NATO Code Number O-133 A and approved for use in certain jet engine models. It’s blended for good viscosity for high-speed turbines and other applications.

Applications of Brayco 460 in Jet Engines

Castrol Brayco 460 is designed for use in older jet engines, particularly those found in aircraft and industrial applications. It meets the MIL PRF for use in high-speed turbines, including gas turbine engines and other types of older jet engines. It offers excellent wear and corrosion protection, resulting in longer engine life and reduced maintenance. 

Brayco 460 is designed for use in applications that require low-temperature operation and good viscosity. It’s compatible with various equipment, including jet engines, turbine engines, and other high-performance applications.

The most notable legacy engines still in operation are the TF-33 engines, which are used on all B-52 bombers and E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control (AWACS) aircraft.
