Antifreeze/coolants consist of either ethylene glycol (EG) or propylene glycol (PG) to provide freeze protection while also raising the boiling point of water. Additives are included in the formulation to protect against corrosion and scale deposits. Additives come in three types: inorganic salts (found in “green” conventional products), organic acids (OATs) and hybrid organic acids (HOATs). Organic acids (sometimes referred to as poly-organic acids), are the most robust and long-lasting of the three. They provide superior protection against scale deposits while offering excellent compatibility for maximum convenience. AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant is premixed 50/50 with ethylene glycol and high-purity water. It uses the latest organic-acid technology to provide outstanding protection while guarding against deposits.
Independent tests reveal AMSOIL Heavy- Duty Antifreeze & Coolant greatly surpasses standards for metallic corrosion, achieving nearly perfect scores in ASTM corrosion and erosion testing on cast aluminum, steel, copper, solder, brass and cast iron as well as aluminum water pumps.
AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant is a poly-organic acid formulation that does not contain inorganic salts (phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, silicate, borate, amine) found in conventional and hybrid organic acid (HOAT) antifreeze/coolants. These materials are responsible for almost all scale deposits in cooling systems, often forming when the antifreeze/coolant is at the wrong pH or mixed with incompatible products. AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant virtually eliminates scaling problems.
Antifreeze/coolants that use inorganic salts can be incompatible with each other, sometimes leading to additive drop-out in the form of an abrasive or slime. Determining product compatibility is a hassle and can lead to accidental mixing and maintenance issues. AMSOIL Heavy- Duty Antifreeze & Coolant does not contain inorganic salts, enhancing compatibility. It may be mixed with all ethylene and propylene glycol antifreeze and coolant colors, allowing operators to top-off any system regardless of the current antifreeze/coolant being used. However, mixing propylene and ethylene glycol formulations can make it difficult to predict freeze protection. If mixing for top-off is unavoidable, it is recommended to flush the cooling system at the next convenient opportunity.
Use in wind turbine converter coolant applications and all passenger cars/light trucks, and applications requiring any of the following specifications:
ASTM D4985, D6210 • Case IH • Caterpillar EC-1 • Chrysler MS7170 • Cummins CES14603 • Detroit Diesel 7SE298, 93K217 • Fiat Professional; Fiat Truck • Ford WSS-M97B51-A1 • Freightliner 48-22880 • John Deere 8650-5 • Mack Truck CNH • MTU MTL5048, 5049 • New Holland • PACCAR: Kenworth, Peterbilt • TMC of ATA RP329, 330, 338 • US Military CID A-A-52624A
AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant is compatible with all common seal, gasket and hose materials found in cooling systems. Its organic-acid chemistry helps promote long seal, gasket and hose life while helping reduce leaks.
AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant does not contain inorganic salts that deplete over time and can turn into scale deposits. Its unique blend of organic acids provides durable and long-lasting protection of cooling system components.
Follow the original equipment manufacturer’s recommendations for top-off and service interval.
Do not add water.
Antifreeze/coolant (new or used) is hazardous. Clean up and dispose of properly following local regulations.
