Lubmarine to launch new lubricant
Lubmarine will launch a new lubricant range for medium-speed engines and high stress applications next month. The formulation of the new Aurelia XL lubricant range has incorporated the latest additive technology to cope with the increasingly demanding environment of modern marine engines, according to Lubmarine. Potential applications, aside from medium-speed engines, include turbochargers, geared transmissions, oil filled sterntubes, cp propellers and other deck equipment requiring a SAE 30 or 40 grade oil, says the company. The major diesel engine OEM approved Aurelia XL is available in a range of BNs with the major grades being BN 30, BN 40 and BN 55. Grades BN 25 and BN 65 are available for special applications.
