Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology THAT clings, locks, and protects

 

There’s no doubt engines need serious protection and Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology is designed to unlock non-stop protection from every start. Every day, everywhere. 

 

The average driver stops and starts as many as 18,000 times every year* and this number is higher in many major cities.

 

Constant decelerating, idling and accelerating increases microscopic engine wear, with metal fragments worn from the surfaces of critical engine parts, turning into damaging wear particles.

 

To fight this problem, we’ve developed DUALOCK technology.  It works in combination with our intelligent molecules to create a powerful forcefield of protection and reduces engine wear by at least 50%**.

 

It is a result of over 10 years of research and development by Castrol's technologists in partnership with one of the world's leading universities. Castrol DUALOCK technology uses a combination of warm-up wear molecules and stop-start wear molecules.

 

Our breakthrough Castrol MAGNATEC DUALOCK molecules cling to critical engine parts and lock together, forming a powerful forcefield of protection that dramatically reduces both warm-up and stop-start wear, by 50%**.

 

The daily stresses placed on engines – both modern and older – are enormous: Did you know that loads on critical engine parts during traffic congestion can be up to 66% higher than when driving on the open road?

 

Choose the oil that clings like a magnet to the vulnerable metal surfaces and moving parts in your engine.

 

Unlock non-stop protection by using Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology.
