Description
Purple Heavy-Duty Conventional Antifreeze/Coolant Arctic Wave P50 is a Prediluted 50/50 Heavy-Duty antifreeze/coolant is ready to add to your vehicle cooling system; no further dilution is necessary. It is a non-silicate, non-phosphate formulation that contains the initial charge of supplemental coolant additive (SCA) and a minimum of 1200 ppm Nitrite (as NO2). It provides outstanding protection from cavitation erosion/corrosion in water pumps and wet sleeve cylinder liners, as well as excellent overall corrosion protection. Arctic Wave P50 is dyed to a purple color.
In addition, Arctic Wave P50 contains an advanced inhibitor system that provides a wide range of inhibitors which protect all cooling system metals. Together with the glycol base, these inhibitors combined with other additives, give year-round protection against freeze-ups, boil-overs and engine cooling system corrosion. Arctic Wave P50 also includes ingredients to disperse minor oil leakage, prevent fouling, control hot surface scaling and it will not damage auto finishes or rubber parts.
In automobiles, light trucks, SUV’s, vans and other light duty applications, this product will provide a service life in excess of 5 years or 150,000 miles. In heavy-duty diesel applications (in which a formal monitoring and maintenance program is in place) it can provide a service life of 300,000 miles with the addition of a heavy-duty supplemental coolant additive as needed.
Pack Size: 55 Gallon Drum
