Coolants for commercial vehicles

As commercial vehicle engines run hotter than before, engine cooling systems need to work harder. Materials that make up cooling systems vary from vehicle to vehicle, so it is vital to make sure that you use the right coolant for each application.


Our coolant range offers excellent protection in commercial vehicle engines and features extended-life products that maintain performance even under extreme conditions.

CASTROL RADICOOL

CASTROL RADICOOL

Castrol Radicool is a concentrated engine coolant for use in both petrol and diesel engines withaluminium or cast iron engines.
 

This coolant can be mixed using 33% concentration with purified waterto give frost protection to -18°C, however it is recommended to use a 50% dilution to provideoptimum corrosion protection and freeze protection down to -36°C. At these concentrations thiscoolant will provides year round protection. To maintain optimum performance this product should be replaced after 1 year.

 

In the majority of cases, coolants are not compatible and should not be mixed with other coolantsunless directed by the equipment manufacturer. If using Castrol Radicool for the first time, ensure thatthe cooling system has been adequately flushed with clean water before use.
