Multiple industry and OEM specifications, different viscosities and numerous engine types can make life complex when selecting the right oil for the right engine. Castrol MAGNATEC’s versatility can help.
Protect the value of your customers’ cars with non-stop protection from every start.
Reduce engine wear by 50%1,2
Castrol MAGNATEC - Engineered for today’s driving
Traffic congestion is getting more severe and more challenging in every urban environment – for drivers, for engines, and for engine oil.
Constant decelerating, idling and accelerating increases microscopic engine wear, with metal fragments worn away from the surfaces of critical engine parts turning into damaging wear particles. Castrol MAGNATEC helps you to protect the value of your customers’ engines.
Non-stop protection from every start
Castrol MAGNATEC addresses this problem delivering patented protection designed specifically for modern driving. Its unique breakthrough Dualock molecules cling to critical engine parts and lock together to form an extra layer of protection dramatically reducing both warm-up1 and re-start wear by 50%2.
How it works
- Clings : The oil clings like a magnet to the vulnerable parts of the engine.
- Locks : The unique Dualock molecule locks together with the other MAGNATEC molecule to form an extra layer of protection.
- Protects : This provides 50% better protection from warm-up1 and re-start engine wear2.
Castrol MAGNATEC Hybrid non-stop hybrid protection from every start
Hybrid vehicles are different. The engine operates intermittently, swapping to electric power at low speeds to move the vehicle. In typical urban driving the engine may only be in use for short periods before switching back to electric power, so it is often running cooler than a non-hybrid.
Some hybrid engines can stop, switch to electric and re-start many more times than a non-hybrid during their lifetime.
These lower temperatures and many more re-start moments create more contamination because without the extra heat from the engine, water and other contaminants remain in the oil. All these hybrid challenges make it harder for the oil to protect against damaging engine wear.
Castrol MAGNATEC Hybrid helps protect against the specific issues that challenge hybrid engines. Its unique Dualock molecules cling like a magnet and lock together, forming an extra layer of protection, providing 50% better protection from low temperature1 and re-start2 engine wear.
Castrol MAGNATEC Hybrid delivers against HYSPEC – Castrol’s new standard for hybrid performance3.
