And what isn't double?

Top 2 as far as flashpoint on the ones listed here in this thread.

Peanut butter is even higher. Why not use that?

Its not a double ester, it's di-ester.

Who said i was gonna use either one of them?

No one.. but using the same logic as some ie higher flashpoint is better peanut butter would male an excellent two cycle oil.
I must also point out that flash point is not indicative of end point, IE when all the oil is actually combusted.

I guess you missed the point of my post. With the 800 being double ester and the R50 being di ester i asked if that could be why they are 1 and 2 on the list here as far as flashpoint because of the esters. They're higher by a good margin. Thats all i asked

There is no such thing as a double ester.. They are higher because the lowest component in their blend ignites at higher temps. Flash point doesn't measure what you think it does and is mostly given for purposes of shipping and storage.

Andy if you came here for any conclusions to anything oil related l think you had wasted hope. Its ok your saws are fine and many others will continue to run far longer than this thread no matter what brand of oil one chooses. An oil thread was a designed platform for one to display his ego, rather than prevent blow by or any other effect with in a two cycle. The winner in this thread goes to the company that markets its oil the best.

and there I was thinking this was a kind of info-tainment thread
Give it three anyway

DIGRESSION WARNING
Road and mountain bike chain lubes have had years of fun discussion, too. A good bit different from saws —in that no heat issues to speak of though, so much less complicated — their issues are penetration, penetration and lubrication, rust protection and staying power vs dirt attraction among other things. I wound up making my own home brew as the premium bike chain lubes are so darn expensive — 4 fl oz for $8 — and a good home mix can work almost as well. Chainsaw Bar oil and Odorless Mineral Spirits does well for many — also added a little Stihl Ultra in there for ***** and giggles, but its high ash content makes it a little dirty compared with what I'm used to putting on a bike chain.

If you Google double ester 2t only 800 shows up

 

[bwalker]

Probably because it's referee to as a diester..not double.

 

[bwalker]

Di- ester is short for Dibasic acid ester..

The bottle of 800t or h1r says double ester but I cant remember which one

I have never seen that.

Maybe they are referring to a blend of two different esters also? Or maybe something was fubared in translating from French.
