Nulon Long Life – cooling system protection for all engines

The onset of summer is usually heralded by cars parked beside the nation’s major roads, with their bonnets in the air and clouds of steam gushing from the engine.

It’s a fact of life that vehicle owners often forget about a vehicle cooling system until its too late. Whether coping with high summer temperatures or freezing winters, the vehicle coolant plays an all too important part if vehicle reliability is to be maintained.

That’s where Nulon Long Life Anti Freeze/Anti-Boil takes away the risks of boiling or freezing, with a formula guaranteed to protect all engines for a minimum 4-years/250,000 km life.

Designed for any engine on the Australian market, Nulon Long Life Anti-Freeze/Anti-Boil uses the latest technology of organic corrosion inhibitors to ensure a long trouble-free life for the engine.

Many coolants available in Australia only provide effective engine protection for a few months. Almost from the moment they are used the fluid degrades within the cooling system, leaving the engine exposed to the possibility of severe damage.

Nulon Long Life Anti-Freeze / Anti-Boil guards against these problems with its organic corrosion inhibitors dramatically extending the levels of engine protection of alloy or cast iron engines.

"The use of the highest grade of inhibitors available in Australia has enabled Nulon to substantially increase the level of engine protection available from a coolant. The extended protection also brings major benefits in lower costs of ownership," said John Simons, Nulon’s national marketing and sales manager.

"We provide top level protection for up to four years for any engine at a price similar to products that only offer protection for 20,000km or 1 year service intervals. Coolant protection is far more important than simply topping up a radiator with water. Modern engines with high operating temperatures demand top quality corrosion inhibitors in addition to providing the correct degree of protection against both boiling and freezing.

"It’s important not to overlook the role played in engine protection by the corrosion inhibitors. The right formula has to control the pH level of the water, reduce or restrict corrosion, inhibit scale production, control electrolysis and cavitation."

"And that’s in addition to keeping operating at the right temperature to ensure efficient combustion and the correct levels of fuel efficiency without the risk of boiling or freezing," Mr Simons said.

The average sedan cooling system circulates up to 6000 litres of coolant per hour at 60 kph to maintain the correct temperature. Without adequate corrosion inhibitors the cooling system becomes restricted in flow and hotspots occur that can severely damage an entire engine.

Nulon Long Life Anti-Freeze/Anti-Boil represents a breakthrough in engine protection and durability that is a significant upgrade to existing standards with longer life.

Available in 2.5 litre, 5 litre and bulk industrial packs as a concentrate for subsequent dilution, Nulon Long Life Anti-Freeze/Anti-Boil is suitable for all makes of engine or fuel systems.

The Nulon range of vehicle care products include PTFE based lubricants, fuel injection improvers, special formulations for extended engine protection and lubricant enhancement, engine conditioning treatment, smoke inhibitors, radiator and coolant system treatment, power steering, transmission and differential system protection.
