APPLICATIONS

Castrol RLX Super 40 is formulated to meet the requirements of engines manufactured by General Motors Electromotive Division (GM-EMD), General Electric (GE) and ALCO. This grade is suitable for all engines fitted with silver bearings, particularly those used in Marine and Offshore power generation sets.

ADVANTAGES
  • Optimum balance of detergency and dispersancy reduces ring sticking and engine deposits, resulting in cleaner engines that maximize operating performance. With extended oil drain intervals, engine downtime is further reduced.
  • Selected additive system provides excellent protection against wear and acid corrosion resulting in increased engine component life.
  • Exceeds detergency requirements of API CF and CF-2.
  • High viscosity index base oil allows control of oil consumption and maintains excellent oil film between bearings at high operating temperatures.
  • Castrol RLX Super 40 is fully compatible with other 5th generation (LMOA) lubricants.
