Friction.
RACING (high performance engines and intensive
riding) The 300V range is specifically designed
to withstand both the severe conditions inherent in racing
and the demands of a rider pushing his machine to its
limits. This range of lubricants is perfectly suited to
competition conditions from road-racing to endurance,
motocross to six-days enduro.
Because they are ester-based and enhanced with highly
efficient and specialized anti-friction additives, the
100% synthetic 300 V lubricants need no or little
viscosity improver additives. An exceptional resistance to
shearing from one oil change to the next is therefore
maintained.
The main performance figures common to the
whole range are:
-
A drastic reduction of friction within the engine,
that results in better performance and reliability, a
lower noise level and less wear on moving parts.
-
Reduced engine running temperature.
-
Exceptional coking resistance (i.e. carbon build-up)
at high temperatures.
-
Low volatility (i.e. very little high temperature
evaporation).
These characteristics make 300 V Racing 15W50 and Sport
10W40 (the viscosity depends on the hydraulic pushrods)
the lubricants that are recommended and used by leading
racing teams. They ensure engine reliability and increased
mileage.
PRACTICAL ADVICE
Consult the manufacturers’ recommendations and
adapt them depending on the vehicle’s use.
