🧪 Rubber Process Oil (RPO) – The Backbone of Rubber Manufacturing
At Westinol (WE Co.), we supply high-quality Rubber Process Oils (RPO) designed to improve processability, flexibility, and performance of rubber and polymer compounds.
Our Light RPO and Heavy RPO grades are formulated under strict ASTM standards (D-445, D-92, D-1298), ensuring consistent viscosity, low sulfur content, and superior dispersion properties for industrial applications.
RPO is an essential component in rubber compounding, tire production, and polymer blending, providing the right balance of softness, durability, and processing efficiency.
🔹 Heavy Rubber Process Oil (H-RPO)
Heavy Rubber Process Oil is a high-viscosity, aromatic-rich oil used in applications requiring excellent solvency and flexibility.
It enhances filler dispersion and improves the elasticity of rubber products, making it ideal for:
- Tire and tube manufacturing (especially truck & heavy-duty tires)
- Conveyor belts and industrial hoses
- Automotive parts and molded rubber components
Technical highlights:
- Viscosity @100°C: 40–60 cSt
- Flash Point: 265–300°C
- Aniline Point: 50–65°C

🔹 Light Rubber Process Oil (L-RPO)
Light Rubber Process Oil is a low-viscosity paraffinic oil that ensures smooth mixing, easy extrusion, and excellent color stability in rubber products.
It is commonly used in:
- Footwear and latex rubber production
- Synthetic rubber processing
- Automotive seals and gaskets
Technical highlights:
- Viscosity @100°C: ~10 cSt
- Flash Point: ~215°C
- Excellent oxidation resistance
