Classic Car Coolant Corrosion Inhibitor Concentrate
Product Overview
Classic Car Coolant is a Type "B", colourless, hybrid-organic, non-glycol based corrosion inhibitor concentrate designed specifically for use in veteran, Edwardian, vintage and classic car cooling systems. It protects against corrosion, cavitation, scaling and oxidisation.
Key Features
- Type B Specification: Meets AS 2108-2004 Type B standard
- Hybrid-Organic Formula: Uses a hybrid inhibitor to provide maximum protection against corrosion
- Superior Heat Transfer: Significantly reduces engine operating temperature
- Colourless Formula: Will not stain engine castings or radiator surrounds
- Non-Glycol Based: Specifically formulated without glycol content
- Bio-degradable and Non-toxic: Environmentally friendly formulation
Performance Benefits
- Provides maximum protection against corrosion, cavitation, scaling and oxidisation
- Can lower running temperatures by 8-10°C cooler than glycol treatments
- Superior heat transfer capabilities to reduce engine operating temperature
- Suitable for use in both hard and soft water
- Overdosing will not cause corrosion or deposition
- Water wetting capabilities assist to lower engine running temperature and prevent overheating damage
Application
Classic Car Coolant is suitable for cooling systems of automotive, heavy duty, stationary, industrial, and marine engines where anti-freeze and/or anti-boil properties are not required. It can be used as a conventional inhibitor in both older and more modern vehicles. Formulated for all water cooled engines where high operating temperatures are a problem.
Dosage & Mixing
- 1 Litre treats up to 15 litres of water
- Optimum dosing is between 10% & 15%
- Recommended to mix with Penrite De-Mineralised Water
- Optimum protection achieved at 12% dosage rate with 3-year change interval
- Should be circulated once added to ensure complete wetting of all surfaces
Important Notes
- Do not mix with other Type B coolant inhibitors
- Not compatible for testing with glycol coolant test strips as false readings can occur
- For best results flush cooling system with Radiator Flush prior to filling
- While not an anti-freeze, can be added to increase anti-corrosion characteristics of pure ethylene or propylene glycol (33-50% concentration)
