Its extremely simple installation, with no need for wiring or external power supplies, allows it…
Read MoreLubricant Pakelo: conciliatory balancing acts
An engine’s reliability depends largely on the quality of the lubricant working within it, particularly the viscosity level that develops when the unit operates for extended periods at full throttle and full load. However, viscosity also affects fuel consumption, so it’s essential to find the right balance between protecting the mechanics and reducing energy consumption The primary function of a lubricant within an engine is to separate the surfaces of interconnected mechanical components. Two examples of this are the pistons sliding within the cylinders and the bearings supporting the crankshafts,…

Designed around an ultra-low-ash formulation, Texaco Delo 600 Adf engine oil proves to be an effective solution for extending the service life of diesel particulate filters and reducing fuel consumption, while at the same time ensuring long-term protection of engine components Next-generation engine oils are no longer simple lubricating fluids; they have become key elements in enabling modern engines to operate at peak efficiency over the long term. This evolution also reflects a historical moment in which internal combustion engines—especially diesel units—are often portrayed as the source of all environmental…
Read MoreExports of battery materials and technologies: Pechino imposes new restrictions
China has imposed new restrictions on the export of materials and technologies related to cathode production, the essential components used in electric vehicle (EV) batteries. This protectionist move—officially justified as a measure to ensure the “sustainable development” of the domestic battery industry—adds another layer of control over the global supply chain of strategic materials Years ago, Beijing had fully opened its doors to Western companies eager to manufacture locally. Over time, however, China has gradually distanced itself from these partnerships—absorbing foreign technologies, replicating production models, and building up the industrial…
Read MoreTransmission oils: new Sae standards come into force
The Sae 300 standards, issued in 2021, introduced an update to the viscosity classification system for engine oils. This year, a similar update has been applied to SAE J306 standards, which regulate lubricants for transmission oils, axles, and differentials, aiming to support the development of higher-efficiency systems The acronym “Sae” stands for “Society of Automotive Engineers”, the international standards organization serving the aerospace, automotive, and vehicle industries. Among its various responsibilities is the definition of lubricant classification standards for these sectors, which are periodically updated as technological progress gives rise…
