VISCOSITY - SAE 40
Castrol MHP 154 Marine Diesel Engine Lubricant
Castrol MHP 153 and 154 are high-performance lubricants specifically developed for use in modern highly rated marine and power generation four-stroke engines operating on distillate fuels.
The MHP range of oils from Castrol are suitable for use in medium to highly-rated marine trunk piston engines operating with ISO 8217 type DMA/DMZ/DMB/RMA10 fuels and requiring API CF performance. As well as this they have high load-carrying capabilities and superior gear performance that enable them to be used as a common oil for both engine and transmission systems.
Compared to an API CD oil, both MHP 153 and 154 lubricants can provide the following advantages:
Long-lasting protection in the toughest operating conditions
- Enhanced performance at high temperatures
- Potential to extend the time between overhauls so reducing costs
Formulated for excellent engine cleanliness
- Cleaner piston ring zone
- Enhanced detergency, excellent thermal and oxidative stability
Offers the potential to simplify and reduce overall lubricant usage
- High load-carrying capabilities and high gear performance enable them to be used as a common oil for both engine and transmission systems.
- Reduced maintenance and wear

Storage Advice:
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.
