Castrol Vecton Plus 10w-40 CK-4/E11

Castrol VECTON® Plus 10W-40 CK-4/E11 is an advanced, heavy-duty diesel engine oil, specifically engineered with synthetic technology to deliver longer useful oil life. Castrol VECTON® Plus 10W-40 CK-4/E11 is suitable for use in high speed 4-stroke diesel engines with diesel fuels of up to 500ppm sulphur and is compatible with diesel engines fitted with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. It is also compatible with the latest exhaust after-treatment systems such as DPF, DOC and/or SCR when diesel sulphur is limited to 15ppm max.

The Castrol Vecton Range – new simplified, consolidation-friendly 3-tier system explained: 

Modern trucks generate up to 30% more torque due to advanced technologies, but this also raises engine temperatures and pressures. These conditions accelerate oil oxidation and thickening, increase deposit formation, deplete acid-controlling reserves—ultimately pushing the oil closer to breakdown, reducing the useful life of the oil.
Castrol VECTON helps to control oxidation, reduce deposits, neutralise harmful acids, and adapts to higher temperatures, maintaining viscosity. Castrol VECTON offers 3 product ranges:

CASTROL VECTON LONG DRAIN

Ultimate Range: Offering our Long Drain and OEM-aligned products helps deliver maximum levels of protection and performance for the latest generation of trucks, to deliver maximum drain intervals3 and fuel savings1. VECTON Long Drain with System Pro Technology™ is tested for extended drains up to 120,000 kms2. Utilising System Pro Technology™, Castrol VECTON Long Drain delivers up to 45% extra performance reserve1 for longer useful oil life, giving you confidence in your maximum drain interval.

CASTROL VECTON PLUS

Enhanced: Offering our Plus product range helps to deliver enhanced levels of protection and longer useful oil life for a wide range of engine technologies, to deliver reliable fleet performance. Offered with System Pro Technology™, formulated with extra performance reserve3, fights oil breakdown by controlling oxidation and deposits, neutralising harmful acids and maintaining viscosity. System Pro Technology™ adapts to increased temperatures, resisting viscosity loss through thermal and mechanical shear.

CASTROL VECTON MULTI

Essential: Offering our Multi Range of Suitable for Use products helps deliver trusted Castrol protection and performance in a wide range of engine technologies, for older fleets looking for a reliable, value-first option. Castrol VECTON Multi helps to keep the engine clean by preventing oil thickening and deposit build-up in critical engine parts, to help deliver reliable engine performance

Castrol VECTON® Plus 10W-40 CK-4/E11 is suitable for use in high-speed 4-stroke diesel engines with diesel fuels of up to 500ppm sulphur and is compatible with diesel engines fitted with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. It is also compatible with the latest exhaust after-treatment systems such as DPF, DOC and/or SCR when diesel sulphur is limited to 15ppm max.

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® Plus 10W-40 CK-4/E11 with System Pro Technology™, formulated with extra performance reserve* fights oil breakdown by controlling oxidation and deposits, neutralising harmful acids and maintaining viscosity. System Pro Technology™ 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.
