Performance & benefits
- Improves engine reliability: excellent acid-neutralising properties that help prolong component life.
- Minimal deposits on pistons, piston rings, ring grooves and the spaces between pistons and cylinder ports.
- Low wear rate, under 0.05 mm per 1000 hours between the cylinder and piston ring, thanks to improved lubrication qualities.
- Reduced maintenance costs: keeps engines very clean, minimises maintenance requirements and allows periods between overhauls to be extended.
- Reassurance: completely stable in storage under all conditions encountered aboard a vessel; proven ability to keep engines clean and control wear and friction; compatible with all normal seal materials.
