Castrol RadiCool is an ALL YEAR ROUND automotive cooling system treatment,
designed to provide complete cooling system protection. Modern engine cooling
systems are designed with the fluid characteristics of glycol based coolants in mind.
Castrol RadiCool is a complete fill, manufacturer approved, ethylene glycol premix
coolant i.e. ?it?s ready to use ? simply pour?.
Castrol RadiCool is a glycol premix coolant which reduces cavitation in areas such as
the water pump and surface cavitation in hot spots of the cylinder head. The
minimisation of cavitation erosion and pitting of head rejecting aluminum surfaces
(e.g. behind exhaust ports) helps to increase component life. A concentration of at
least 30% glycol is required to obtain a significant improvement in cavitation
performance. Motor manufacturers normally use a minimum of 33% glycol coolant in
new vehicles to achieve satisfactory engine cooling system protection. Castrol RadiCool is
premixed to a 33% mass glycol concentration.
Castrol RadiCool will raise the boiling point and lower the freezing point of the engine
coolant. The benefits impact a resistance to the engine coolant boiling in summer
and freezing in winter.
Castrol RadiCool incorporates additives to guard against corrosion of cast iron, steel,
brass, solder, copper and aluminum alloys used for engine and radiator components.
PRODUCT APPLICATION
Castrol RadiCool is compatible with materials normally used in automotive cooling
systems which include rubber hoses, gaskets, rubber seals and plastic components.
Caution
Castrol RadiCool is premixed to the correct 33% glycol concentration. DO NOT top up
with water as it will reduce the glycol and corrosion inhibitor concentration and
accordingly reduce the protection provided, increasing the risk of damage to your
cooling system and engine problems.
When future top up of the system is necessary, add only Castrol RadiCool. Do not mix
Castrol RadiCool with other brands of anti-freeze, coolants of corrosion inhibitors
because of the possible incompatibility of inhibitors. Castrol RadiCool is compatible
with Castrol Anti-Freeze Anti-Boil.
Castrol RadiCool could soften some types of painted finishes. In the event of spillage,
wash off with water immediately, do not wipe off.
