Performance & benefits
Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 is a cylinder lubricant with an alkaline reserve suitable to efficiently prevent acidic corrosion that may occur on the cylinder liners when use fuels with a low sulphur content
The peculiar additives used in the product ensure the neutralization of the acidic condensates deriving from the combustion process, in order to prevent the corrosive phenomena
The high thermal stability of Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 ensures optimum lubrication even in the largest bore engines operating at the highest mean effective pressures
The very high detergent and dispersant characteristics of the product prevent a build-up of carbon deposits in the piston ring grooves, which can lead to ring sticking or breakage
Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 is able to form a stable oil film and spread uniformly over the cylinder liner surface. These properties ensures a suitable lubrication between piston rings and cylinder liners and protects against abrasive wear, which lead to a reduction in maintenance and related costs
