15W-40 High Protection Diesel Formula Engine Oil
Over a period of 25 years Nulon has gained an enviable reputation globally as a manufacturer and supplier of superior quality additives and chemical car care products serving the automotive aftermarket industry. With the vast amount of knowledge gained over that period, it seems a natural progression to introduce a 'top of the range' selection of motor/engine oils. Typically, Nulon is setting the benchmark to which others will aspire. Hence, we not only bring you the best that current technology can provide, but we have moved one step ahead. All Nulon motor/engine oils contain our unique, state of the art "Advanced Additive Technology" AAT. AAT genuinely offers huge reductions in friction, which equates to improved fuel efficiency and enhanced wear protection compared to industry standards.
Nulon 15W-40 High Protection Diesel Formula Engine/Motor Oil uses the latest technology to lubricate and protect all small, medium and heavy duty turbo and non turbo charged diesel engines/motors. Nulon 15W-40 High Protection Diesel Formula is a "super high" performance diesel motor oil which surpasses the requirements of most American, Japanese and European engine/motor manufacturers. This makes this product unique in that it reduces inventory where different engine/motor types are being serviced, as it also has excellent petrol engine/motor performance. High shear stable polymers and 100% virgin base oil form the basis of this advanced engine/motor lubricant. It exhibits excellent high temperature stability and low temperature cold start performance to cater for all operating conditions. Excellent detergent and dispersant properties protect against engine/motor sludge and deposit formation.
