| KV40 | — | ASTM D445 |
| KV100 | 8.2 cSt | ASTM D445 |
| Viscosity index | 200 | ASTM D2270 |
| Pour point | -33 °C | ASTM D97 |
| Flash point | 270 °C | ASTM D92 |
| Density at 15 °C | — | typical |
KV40 is hidden because 36 cSt is outside the ISO VG 32 band.
Grade checks
- Stored KV40 is outside the ISO VG 32 band, so it is not shown above.
Viscosity and temperature
KV40 and KV100 are both needed before ASTM D341 can draw a curve.

Questions
Is Castrol Performance Bio HE 32 TG an ISO VG 32 oil?
Yes. The catalogue lists it as ISO VG 32, which is a kinematic viscosity of 32 cSt at 40 °C, plus or minus 10 percent (28.8 to 35.2 cSt). Confirm the current data sheet before you fill a machine.
What is a Castrol Performance Bio HE 32 TG equivalent?
No other brand in this catalogue clears the equivalents bar for this oil yet (same application, same grade, compatible base oil, and a score of 60 or more). That is not proof that nothing else works. Check the machine manual.
Can Castrol Performance Bio HE 32 TG be mixed with another oil?
Mixing two oils that share a base family is sometimes done and sometimes a mistake. Do not mix this oil with a PAG. For any other mix, follow the maker's change-over guidance and the machine manual.
