Dekacool
Balmerol Dekacool is a high performance Long-life automotive coolant for use in the cooling systems of both cast Iron and Aluminium engines. Balmerol Dekacool is based on high quality ethylene glycol liquid inhibited by carefully balanced mixture of Hybrid Organic Corrosion Inhibitors free from Amines, Borates, Nitrites & Silicates and offers efficient heat transfer, protection against rust and corrosion, thereby preventing the formation of sludge and deposits in the cooling system keeping it working efficiently. It is compatible with commonly used metals and elastomers used. Balmerol Dekacool can be diluted with water in the ratio of 1:2 (i.e. 33% coolant & 67 % water). The coolant additive exceeds the industry standards JIS K 2234- 2006 Class II, ASTM D3306 and BS 6580 for corrosion protection.
Available Size:
500ml 1L 0.35l
Features & Benefits:
- High level of corrosion protection
- Efficient frost and boiling protection
- Compatible with seal and elastomer materials
- Hard water stable
- All year around cooling system protection
- Excellent heat transfer capability
- Long service life of more than 80,000 KM in automotive applications
- Suitable for all models of vehicles
- Meets the stringent requirements of auto OEMs
Applications / Recommendations:
- Balmerol Dekacool coolant concentrate is highly recommended for use in the cooling systems of petrol and diesel engines and ensures protection against corrosion of cast iron, steel, brass, copper and aluminium alloys used for engine and radiator components and ensures free circulation in the cooling system down to - 4⁰C. It is compatible with elastomer materials normally used in automotive cooling systems like rubber & plastic components and also compatible with hard water.
