Vecton 15W-40 CK-4/E9: Extended Oil Change Intervals

Description

Castrol VECTON® 15W-40 CK-4/E9 is a premium, heavy-duty diesel engine oil formulated with synthetic base oil technology to extend oil change intervals. This product is suitable for high-speed, four-stroke diesel engines using diesel fuel with a sulfur content of up to 500ppm (0.05%). It is also compatible with diesel engines equipped with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems and the latest exhaust after-treatment systems such as DPF, DOC, and SCR when using diesel fuel with a sulfur content of up to 15ppm (0.0015%).

Advantages

VECTON® 15W-40 CK-4/E9 with System Pro™ Technology provides up to 45% extra performance (*) in fighting oil breakdown and is designed for high-temperature operation, helping to maximize your engine oil replacement intervals. All Castrol VECTON® products are certified CO2 neutral according to the international PAS2060 standard.

Modern trucks using new technology are designed with 30% higher torque, leading to engines operating at higher temperatures and pressures. These changes accelerate oil degradation, shortening oil change intervals. Castrol VECTON® 15W-40 CK-4/E9 with System Pro™ Technology is specially formulated to enhance oil performance, combating oil breakdown through:

  1. Oxidation Control: Preventing oxidation and deposit formation inside the engine
  2. Acid Neutralization: Neutralizing harmful acids
  3. Viscosity Maintenance: Maintaining oil viscosity

System Pro™ Technology adapts to higher temperature conditions, helping to combat oil viscosity breakdown due to thermal and mechanical stress, thus maximizing oil change intervals.

(*) Compared to API and ACEA standards based on tests of 81% of VECTON products sold over 12 months up to March 2017.
