Description
NEW CASTROL VECTON 15W-40 CK-4 with unique System Pro TechnologyTM is an advanced part-synthetic heavy duty engine oil. Conforming to the requirements of PC-11 engine oil technology, it can be used in diesel engines where API CK-4 or, CJ-4 and below is required. Specifically engineered to deliver longer oil life, enabling longer service intervals even under severe operating conditions.
Application
MAIN BENEFITS:
Castrol VECTON 15W-40 CK-4 delivers extended drain intervals of up to 60,000 miles*
New technology developments in diesel engines have led to lower emissions in heavy duty vehicles. These technology advances result in increasing levels of torque within the engine, leading to higher pressures and temperatures. Castrol VECTON 15W-40 CK-4 with unique System Pro TechnologyTM adapts to increased pressure and temperature with its proven shear stability and oxidation performance, extending useful life of the oil for longer service intervals and higher productivity.
(*in combination with and following a proper oil analysis program.)
Advantages
USER BENEFITS INCLUDE:
• Excels under high pressure: engine combustion pressures are increasing, which puts increased pressure on key engine parts. Castrol VECTON 15W-40 CK-4 with unique System Pro TechnologyTM is formulated to hold its viscosity under high shear contacts to extend oil life.
• Performs at high temperature: engine oil is subjected to areas of very high temperature in modern engines, causing oxidation and oil thickening. Castrol VECTON 15W-40 CK-4 is formulated to fight oxidation to extend oil life.
