This can save money in fuel consumption, without compromising engine protection or durability. The oil also helps ensure enhanced engine protection and can help to reduce maintenance costs.

This unique combination helps to deliver excellent equipment protection, long engine life and maintain viscosity control under high temperatures.

Extreme Temperature Protection
