○ IP TARUS TURBO EXTRA 15W40 205L
IP Tarus Turbo Extra grade SAE 15w40 is a multi-grade engine oil for diesel engines with compressors for heavy-duty service in trucks, excavators and earthmoving vehicles.
Taurus IP offers high protection for engines with compressor, ensuring optimum temperature control. It passes all engine tests and provides optimum engine protection against wear and corrosion. It is classified as a long drain oil for extended intervals or SHPDO (Super High Performance Diesel Oil).
It has detergent and protective properties in cold start and full speed driving, including on expressways. It prevents the mechanical phenomenon known as rod burnishing , che comporta un calo di pressione e un aumento del consumo di olio.
It prevents the build-up of deposits and varnish on the clamps, piston edges and piston ring housings, while preventing viscosity increase resulting from the presence of particles in the oil produced by diesel combustion.
The alkaline properties of IP Tarus Turbo Extra prevent the formation of combustion acids, whereas the low volatility under the Noack test ensures reduced lubricant consumption.
