HDAX® 7200 Low Ash Gas Engine Oil is formulated with premium
base stocks which contain extremely low sulfur, nitrogen, and
aromatics. It uses a proprietary, premium additive package
containing ashless dispersants, oxidation inhibitors, metallic
detergents and a metallic anti-wear agents. HDAX® 7200 Low
Ash Gas Engine Oil gives outstanding protection against ring and
liner scuffing and wear. It also minimizes valve recession in
four-stroke engines and provides excellent piston and ring belt
deposit control to effectively protect against the formation and
buildup of engine sludge.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
Exceptional engine performance
Optimized detergent/dispersant additive package helps to
minimize the formation of engine deposits.
Valve recession protection
The level and type of ash-producing additives in the oil provides
minimum valve recession with low levels of combustion chamber
deposits to minimize the potential for pre-ignition and spark plug
fouling.
Low wear
Offers outstanding protection against piston, ring, and
liner scuffing, scoring, and wear.
Long oil life
Improved oxidation and nitration resistance provides maximum
flexiblity in maintenance scheduing.
Clean pistons
Works to keep pistons clean, which helps prevent ring
sticking and maintains clean, vanish-free piston skirts.

SERVICE CONSIDERATIONS
The sulfated
ash, alkalinity reserve and phosphorus content of gas engine oils
can be
properly matched to the needs of individual applications, taking
account of engine design,
operating conditions, fuel type and quality, with particular
reference to sulfur content and
whether or not the engine is fitted with an exhaust catalyst for
emission control purposes.
All spark
ignition, gas-fuelled engines are sensitive to the sulfated ash
level of the
lubricant and to the chemical nature of the ash. Excessive ash can
lead to problems such
as exhaust valve guttering and build-up of preignition-inducing
combustion chamber
deposits. On the other hand, many engines require a certain amount
of lubricant ash to
ensure satisfactory valve seat lubrication and to minimize valve
seat recession.
