Launched by BP Castrol Lubricants (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, the new Castrol Activ has improved Actibond molecules which cling to critical engine parts, thus providing 50 per cent better protection (compared to industry limits for API SL and JASO MA2 specifications).
Keow Mei-Shan, marketing director for Castrol Malaysia and Singapore said, “Modern riding conditions demand a lot from riders and their motorcycles. There can be at least 10 million instances per month where a motorcycle engine could get damaged simply whilst running. In fact, a motorcycle requires continuous protection not just whilst riding but also during start up and even when the engine is off. Overall, the new Castrol Activ promises Castrol’s best continuous protection ever for motorcycles.”
The new Castrol Activ protects the engine through all three stages:
During start up – Most engine wear occurs during warm up, just after start. The new Castrol Activ reduces warm up wear by 75 per cent (compared to passing API SL oil tested in Sequence IVA engine test) thereby reducing wear and tear of vital engine parts.
During riding – The new Castrol Activ fights deposits and provides superior engine cleanliness, to help ensure smooth running and reduce piston wear.
During engine switch off – By clinging on to engine parts even when the engine is switched off, Castrol Activ provides excellent protection against corrosion which may occur due to humidity.
The new Castrol Activ meets API SL and JASO MA2 specifications.
It is available in 1 litre bottles at Castrol Bike Points, motorcycle workshops and retailers throughout Malaysia at RM23.50 for Peninsular Malaysia and RM24.20 for East Malaysia.
