We have been a Castrol distributor since 1979, forging a strong working relationship for 36 years. The constant research and development by Castrol, has enabled us to provide our customers with the most up-to-date products available in the market.

The status we have been awarded is in recognition to our commitment to the Castrol business and dedication to the brand. We have seen continual growth of Castrol and BP sales over the years (following BP’s acquisition of Castrol in

2000), and this is testament to continual superior quality of the product range and our dedication to follow BP’s guidelines and ethics.

Investing in the right oilWith ever tightening legislation surrounding permitted emissions on new vehicles, engine oils have never been so important and a fundamental component for keeping consistent performance as well as maximising engine life.

Euro VI is the most restrictive EU standard to date for the reduction of emissions from commercial vehicles. Compared with Euro V, particle emissions are to be reduced by 66% and nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx) by 80%.

In order to meet the new specified limits, manufactures have looked to a combination of after treatment systems that all work to reduce emissions.

Treatment Devices;

• EGR (exhaust gas recirculation)

• DPF (Diesel particulate filter)

• SCR (Selective catalytic reduction)

www.broughtonlubricants.co.uk4 5

The use of devices like: EGR, DPF and SCR all have their own influence on the lubricant specification. Each technology has its own negative affect, which can be controlled by the use of high quality engine oil, thus maintaining engine performance and fuel efficiency as well as extending component life.

It is this emission technology which drives the lubricant specification, but all these technologies come with their own set of repercussions which an efficient and effective oil should combat.

Problems include;

• Increased soot formation and an increased risk of engine wear

• Ash build blocking the filter which is costly to replace

• Increased engine temperatures place higher stress on oil

All these problems can threaten the performance and efficiency of your vehicles – adding cost to your operations and damaging your reliability.

Problem Threat Solution

Engine oil can become thicker with age.

This causes engine drag and the engine to work harder, increasing fuel consumption.

Castrol Vecton up to 40% better at fighting oil thickening.

Oils allow deposits to build up around the piston rings.

Causes damage to the seal. Oil leaks into combustion chamber will increase oil consumption.

Castrol Vecton up to 40% better at fighting piston deposit build-up.

Contaminants in engines naturally build up in oil.

Causing loss of performance and protection. Oil needs changing more frequently.

Castrol Vecton up to 40% better at handling contaminants.

Some oils are stronger than others.

Weak oil film leaves engine parts vulnerable to corrosive attacks and can allow metal-to-metal contact that causes engine damage.

Castrol Vecton up to 40% better at resisting wear and corrosion.

Soot is the engines enemy.

Build-up can break down protective oil layer and lead to abrasive wear. Soot in the valve train causes engine responsiveness and efficiency to fall.

Castrol Vecton up to 40% better at controlling soot build-up.

5 Engine Threats;

• Soot damage• Oil thickening• Piston deposits• Contaminants• Engine wear & corrosion

Protecting an engines performance, reliability and efficiency is key to enhancing an engines life time. This can be achieved with a heavy duty engine oil which combats the five damaging engine threats;

Castrol Vecton, with System5 Technology™, is the only purpose designed engine oil which will combat all 5 engine threats;
