ChemTech Lubricants Technical Data Sheet
ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy, API SM, En Conserving, ILSAC GF-4
#041040
ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy is blended from the finest quality Group III and synthetic base fluids available.
This unique combination provides ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy with the following advantages:
1. Superior Cold Weather Startability and Operating Characteristics. This results in less friction and lubricant drag in the engine and instant lubrication during cold weather start up.
2. Superior Oxidative Stability. Any oil as it is increasingly exposed to high temperature operation undergoes the process of oxidation. This results in the oils thickening and the buildup of acidic components. Because of ChemTech's base oil's uniform molecular structure, the process of oxidation is greatly reduced.
3. Excellent Resistance to Thermal Degradation.
4. Lower Volatility. This results in reduced oil consumption.
5. Lower Pour Point and Borderline Pumping Temperature. This ensures that ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy will pump and be distributed rapidly at low temperatures, providing optimum protection needed at low temperature startup.
6. High Viscosity Index. This results in minimum change in viscosity. The adequate viscosity for the proper lubrication of the engine is provided regardless of temperature.
7. Excellent Film Strength. This results in increased protection against wear.
8. Compatibility with All Types of Seals and clutches.
9. Extended Oil Drain Capability and Intervals.
Blended into the base fluids is a highly specialized performance additive package and a highly shear stable viscosity index improver. This combination provides ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy with the following performance benefits:
1. Exceptional protection against thermal breakdown during high engine oil operations providing outstanding protection against the formation of high temperature deposits.
2. Rapid circulation and excellent pumpability.
3. Excellent resistance to thinning at high temperatures.
4. Excellent shear stability in order to help ChemTech SAE 10W40Cy to stay in grade over the oil drain interval.
5. Substantially reduced oil consumption.
6. Excellent high temperature/high shear performance to provide excellent oil film thickness and engine protection at high operating temperatures and shear rates, while minimizing lubricant frictional resistance.
7. High detergency and dispercency to suppress the formation of deposits, sludge and varnish. Enhances clutch engagement.
8. A substantial reduction in ring and cylinder wear.
9. Reduced bearing wear and increased bearing and clutch life.
10. Excellent rust, bearing corrosion, anti-corrosion and anti-wear properties.
11. Increased engine cleanliness with excellent anti-foaming properties.
12. Superior valve train-wear protection and increased engine and gear life
13. Increased fuel economy benefits.
14. Enhanced emission control system compatibility
15. Increased fuel economy benefits & retention for improved gas mileage during the entire oil drain interval.
Further blended into these base fluids, a highly specialized performance additive package and shear stability viscosity index improver is a proven frictional modifier, Midtrol™, a ChemTech exclusive formula that plates to the metal surfaces of the engine. Once plated, the Midtrol™ forms a long lasting lubricant film, which prevents the metal surfaces from coming into contact with each other.
This prevention of metal-to-metal contact and reduction in wear results in:
- Increased fuel economy
- Low coefficient of friction
- Significantly less bearing, ring, piston, cylinder and valve train wear.
- Increased engine efficiency
- Increased engine durability
- Increased engine life
- Less down-time
- Reduced maintenance costs
