VISCOSITY - SAE 5w-30
Castrol Vecton Long Drain 5w-30 FA-4/F01 - Longer Useful Oil Life
Castrol VECTON Long Drain 5W-30 FA-4/F01 is an advanced full synthetic heavy-duty diesel engine oil that is specifically engineered to deliver longer useful oil life and additional fuel savings* in the latest highly rated diesel engines. Compatible with most EGR engines and most engines fitted with SCR NOx reduction systems.
Modern trucks use new technologies to achieve as much as 30% higher torque, bringing higher engine temperatures and pressures, reducing the useful life of oil. With System Pro Technology, Castrol VECTON Long Drain 5W-30 FA-4/F01 delivers *Up to 45% Extra Performance Reserve (EPR) for longer useful oil Life, giving you confidence in your maximum drain interval**.
-
Heavy-duty diesel engines in trucks, buses, and commercial vehicles.
-
Engines with or without particulate filters (DPF), most EGR-equipped engines, and engines with SCR NOx reduction systems.
-
Ideal for operations requiring long oil life, fuel efficiency, and reliable engine protection, especially with low-sulphur diesel fuel.
Why Choose Castrol VECTON Long Drain 5W-30 FA-4/F01?
Castrol VECTON Long Drain 5W-30 FA-4/F01 combines advanced full synthetic formulation with System Pro Technology™ to deliver extended oil life, superior engine protection, and improved fuel efficiency.
It is engineered to meet the demands of modern high-torque engines, reduce maintenance intervals, and provide reliable, fuel-efficient, and environmentally compliant performance for commercial vehicle fleets.
Modern trucks use new technologies to make as much as 30% higher torque, but that also brings higher engine temperatures and pressures. This punishes the oil, pushing it closer to breakdown, reducing its useful life. Castrol VECTON Long Drain 5W-30 FA-4/F01’s System Pro Technology™, formulated with extra performance reserve, fights oil
breakdown by:
-
Extended oil life – up to 45% Extra Performance Reserve* for maximum drain confidence.
-
High-temperature and high-pressure protection – maintains viscosity and performance under extreme conditions.
-
Oxidation and deposit control – keeps engines cleaner over extended service intervals.
-
Acid neutralisation – protects engine components and reduces wear.
-
Maintains viscosity under thermal and mechanical stress – consistent lubrication even at high torque and temperature.
-
Compatible with modern emission systems – safe for engines with DPF, EGR, and SCR systems.
System Pro Technology™ also adapts to increased temperatures, resisting viscosity loss through thermal and mechanical shear. All of this means longer useful oil life, giving you the confidence in your maximum drain interval.
