Caltex Lubricants unveiled its latest premium diesel engine oil – Caltex Delo ® 400 MGX SAE 15W-40. This newest lubricant offering from Caltex has its ISOSYN technology providing unmatched protection in both high & low sulphur diesel fuel environments. Best of all it can give up to 80,000km between oil changes for most market situations. 80,000km!!!! Wow.



The revolutionary formulation constitutes a higher specification, and is specially designed to meet the Malaysian market requirements. This improved formulation will benefit both new and older diesel engines – helping customers to utilise just one heavy duty engine oil that operates efficiently in both high- and low-sulphur diesel fuel environments.

Chevron uses ISOSYN® Technology to formulate its top-tier Delo® products, combining premium base oils with high performance additives with the company’s formulation expertise to provide excellent protection for diesel engine parts – at a competitive value. This new advanced formula Caltex Delo® 400 MGX SAE 15W- 40 API SM rated engine oil delivers excellent soot dispersancy, as well as wear protection and sludge control to guard against loss of engine life and help reduce oil consumption.


Caltex Delo® 400 MGX SAE 15W-40 also has the added advantage of a single fleet oil, thereby, reducing the need for multiple diesel engine oils as well as petrol vehicle engine oils (you can use this oil for your petrol powered commercial vehicles as it has API SL (gasoline/petrol) rating). The new product is specifically developed to help meet emissions regulations as well as adheres to OEM (original equipment manufacturer) requirements and performance specifications of the local markets. Delo® with ISOSYN® helps to extend service protection and maximise engine durability as well as operating costs.

The newly launched, and currently fully imported from the U.S.A.  (with plans to regionally formulate it like the older Delo oils) Caltex Delo ® 400 MGX SAE 15W-40, is currently available in drum packaging (with smaller packaging at a later date - unannounced as yet) through Caltex appointed distributors at a recommended selling price of MYR 9.50/L

Put the longer oil change intervals into the picture and you would actually be saving some money as the vehicles stay on the roads longer and there is less down time, meaning your vehicles are out there generating money for you. Last time you serviced your truck at 50,000km. Now you could do it at 70,000-80,000km. 

For the moment, this new Delo 400 MGX will be sold together with the other (older) Delo engine oil. Eventually, the Delo 400 MGX should replace the others as it offers better protection and unlike the other Delo engine oils, this is a true single fleet and multi-specification engine oil.


PRESS RELEASE

CHEVRON MALAYSIA UNVEILS HIGH PERFORMANCE
CALTEX DELO ® 400 MGX ENGINE OIL FOR THE MALAYSIAN MARKET

Caltex Lubricants’ newest lubricant offering with ISOSYN technology providing unmatched
protection in both high & low sulphur diesel fuel environments




KUALA LUMPUR, July 28, 2016 – In its commitment to address the needs of the commercial industry

players and to meet more stringent emissions legislations, Chevron which markets the Caltex™ brand,

unveiled its latest premium diesel engine oil – Caltex Delo ® 400 MGX SAE 15W-40. The revolutionary

formulation constitutes a higher specification, and is specially designed to meet the Malaysian market

requirements. This improved formulation will benefit both new and older diesel engines – helping customers

to utilise just one heavy duty engine oil that operates efficiently in both high- and low-sulphur diesel fuel

environments.

“The oil and gas industry in Malaysia produces a mix of low and high sulphur diesel fuel which ranges

between 15 and 5000ppm. The introduction of the Caltex Delo ® 400 MGX SAE 15W-40 is proof of our

commitment and goal to providing customers with ground-breaking products which not only boost

performance but reduce operating costs as well, while keeping their diesel equipment operating reliably,”

said,” said Lennard Kwek, Asia Pacific Marketing Manager, Chevron Lubricants.

The Caltex Delo product range includes lubricants and coolants providing premium protection, performance

and bottom-line value for on- and off-road diesel-powered equipment. These products are found and

utilised in all major heavy industries such as commercial transportation, construction, mining, agriculture,

and power generation.

Delo’s industry-leading lubricants have logged in 2.4 million kilometres and countless hours offering

superior protection to diesel engine parts, allowing vehicles and equipment to operate smoothly. Caltex

Delo® 400 MGX has been thoroughly field tested in trucks using up to 5000ppm diesel fuel sulfur levels to

show its performance capability in neutralising harmful acids while at the same time retaining its alkalinity in

extended-drain operations in both high- and low-sulphur diesel fuel environments.

“Many customers serving in the heavy equipment industry are facing challenging situations including

exposure towards excessive occupational heat owning fleet of variant ages operating in both high- and

ultra-low sulphur environments. The introduction of Caltex Delo® 400 MGX addresses these issues, while

adhering to the latest American Petroleum Institute (API) specification as well as many American and

European Original Equipment Manufacturers’ (OEM) approvals. Furthermore, one of the advantages

offered to customers is the synthetic-like performance at the cost of mineral products, which significantly

reduces the costs of premium lubrication costs,” said Asim Khan, Area Business Manager, Cluster Asia

Pacific, Chevron Lubricants.
