These are heavy duty oils formulated from highly refined base oils and detergent-dispersant inhibitors, anti-wear additives and a special oil thickening control agent.
PERFORMANCE BENEFITS :
- Leaner engine due to reduction of engine deposits
- Better soot handling capacity
- Longer engine and oil life
APPLICATIONS :
They are recommended for high speed Naturally Aspirated / Turbo / Supercharged diesel engines operating at low speed and high torque conditions prevalent in prolonged city stop & go driving conditions and also in hilly regions. They are recommended for use in Heavy-Duty Commercial Vehicles, Light Commercial Vehicles & Multi Utility Vehicles. This oil was evaluated in ‘Double Decker’ buses of M/s. BEST, Mumbai and oil drain interval of 22,000 kms. was established. They also demonstrated the Long Drain capability in APSRTC buses.
