Description
Gulf Antifreeze is “British Standard coolant” concentrate based on Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) and suitable corrosion inhibitors to provide protection against frost and corrosion. It needs to be mixed with appropriate amount of water for using as cooling and heat transfer fluid in internal combustion engines. It is free from potentially harmful additives such as nitrites, amines and phosphates and hence it contributes to a safer environment. It is neutral towards gaskets, hoses and provides good resistance against foam.
Features & Benefits
It is formulated to provide effective corrosion protection to cooling system and engine parts made out of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
It provides round the year protection against frost and boiling
It is compatible with rubber seals/strips.
As it is free from nitrites, amines and phosphates, it contributes to safer environment.
Applications
It is recommended to be used at least 33% dosage of Gulf Antifreeze in 67% water. For optimum performance, 40% of concentrate in 60% of water is recommended.
It is recommended for use in cooling systems of all types of liquid cooled automotive and industrial engines where such types of coolants are used. (Please refer OEM manual for recommended
coolant)
Warning: Keep all antifreeze out of reach of children. Do not drink antifreeze. If swallowed, induce vomiting and immediately seek medical advice.
