Applications

API CI-4 was developed to improve engine reliability fitted with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system in place and intended for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur content up to 0.5% weight. This engine oil can provide improved anti-wear and corrosion protection, high temperature oxidation stability, and soot control that modern low-emission engines require.

  • Can be used in all land based diesel engines including diesel powered large trucks and buses.
  • Light duty diesel cars, vans and buses.
  • Diesel powered construction machinery.
  • Naturally aspirated and turbocharged diesel engines.
Features & Benefits
  • High thermal and oxidation stability.
  • Proven metallo-organic anti-wear additive system protects engines under all operating conditions.
  • Excellent soot handling capability allowing for extended drain interval.
  • Optimum performance over a wide range of operating conditions.
  • Very good detergency and dispersancy ability to keep the engine clean and efficient control of sludge and soot deposits.
