Vecton 15W-40 CI-4/E7

Advances in engine technology have led to increased power and efficiency, meaning engines work harder and under higher pressures than ever before. The only thing keeping metal engine components apart is the oil, so it needs to be strong and remain strong. Castrol VECTON® 15W-40 CI-4/E7 is an advanced mineral heavy duty diesel engine oil that is specifically engineered to deliver longer useful oil life. It is suitable for use in high speed 4-stroke diesel engines that use a broad range of fuel qualities. It is also compatible with diesel engines fitted with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system

Advantages

Castrol VECTON® 15W-40 CI-4/E7 with System Pro TechnologyTM delivers up to 45% extra performance reserve* that fights oil breakdown and also adapts to higher temperatures for longer useful oil life, giving you confidence in your maximum drain interval.
All Castrol VECTON products are certified CO2 neutral according to the internationally applicable PAS2060 standard.

Modern trucks use new technologies to make as much as 30% higher torque, but that also brings higher engine temperatures and pressures. This punishes the oil, pushing it closer to breakdown, reducing its useful life. Castrol VECTON® 15W-40 CI-4/E7’s System Pro TechnologyTM formulated with extra performance reserve fights oil breakdown by:

Controlling oxidation and deposits Neutralizing harmful acids Maintaining viscosity.

System Pro TechnologyTM also adapts to increased temperatures resisting viscosity loss through thermal and mechanical shear. All of this means longer useful oil life giving you the confidence in your maximum drain interval. *Compared to API and ACEA industry requirements and based on tests conducted on 81% of the Castrol VECTON range by volume using 12 months sales up to March 2017.

Storage

All packages should be stored under cover. Where outside storage is unavoidable drums should be laid horizontally to avoid the possible ingress of water and damage to drum markings. Products should not be stored above 60°C, exposed to hot sun or freezing conditions.
