Castrol Duratec G

Castrol Duratec G is a low ash SAE 40 engine oil, manufactured with high quality base stocks, designed for use in stationary gas engines operating on both sweet and sour natural gas, or landfill gas.

Stationary gas engines are susceptible to many types of engine deposits and contamination, relating to the type of gas burned. Deposits and contamination can reduce engine clearances, cause abrasive wear and contribute to increased oil consumption. This may necessitate more frequent maintenance downtime and higher running costs. Castrol Duratec G can protect and extend the life of critical combustion chamber components against silicon-based deposits in landfill gas engines. Castrol Duratec G also protects against piston deposits.

Castrol Duratec G provides the potential for extended drain intervals, lower oil consumption and protection against valve deposits.

After testing with natural and landfill gases in different OEM engines, Castrol Duratec G demonstrated:

• Excellent deposit and contamination control, ensuring engine clearances and cleanliness are maintained.
• Good engine wear protection.
• Low oil consumption.
• Optimised TBN retention to neutralise harmful acids and protect critical engine components.
• Resistance to damaging oxidation and nitration, avoiding premature oil degradation.

Castrol Duratec G is approved for use by several OEMs after demonstrating the required performance in the required field testing;

• Caterpillar

• Waukesha

• Rolls Royce

• Wartsila*

Storage:

All packages should be stored under cover. Where outside storage is unavoidable, drums should be laid horizontally to avoid the possible ingress of water and the obliteration of drum markings. Products should not be stored above 60°C or exposed to hot sun or freezing conditions.
