CASTROL MAGNATEC: NON-STOP PROTECTION FROM EVERY START

Traffic congestion has increased significantly over the past decade. Thats annoying, but worse, it slowly damages your engine permanently.

To respond to increasingly urbanised environments, we developed Castrol MAGNATEC with patented DUALOCK technology. Castrol's unique MAGNATEC DUALOCK technology is a world first. The molecules cling to critical engine parts and lock together to protect the engine against warm-up wear and stop-start wear. This forms a powerful force-field of protection reducing both warm-up wear and stop-start wear, each by 50%*.

CASTROL MAGNATEC: CLINGING MOLECULES, REINVENTED!

It's an Increasingly Urbanised World

Traffic congestion has increased dramatically over the past decade. It is getting more severe and more challenging - for drivers, their engines, and their engine oil. Today, even a normal driver can stop and start up to 18,000 times a year**. Thats annoying, but worse, it slowly damages the engine - permanently. Constant decelerating, idling and accelerating increases microscopic engine wear, with metal fragments worn from the surfaces of critical engine parts, turning into damaging wear particles.

DUALOCK TECHNOLOGY

To respond to this changing environment, Castrol DUALOCK technology uses the combination of warm-up wear molecules and stop-start wear molecules. They lock together at the molecular level to form a powerful force-field of protection.

Castrol MAGNATEC

Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology uses the combination of two different protective molecules. They lock together at the surface to create a powerful force-field of protection, leading to dramatic reduction of both warm-up and stop-start wear.

A WORLD FIRST - DUALOCK TECHNOLOGY REDUCES ENGINE WEAR BY 50%*.
