How good are Nanolia FrictionGuard™ tribological coatings on big diesels?

A transport company in New Zealand has reported substantially reduced fuel consumption accompanied by increased power, higher oil pressure, lower engine temperature and less noise after just 2177 kms of operation following treatment to his Cummins ISX 580 powered truck.

Data from the Dyno tests carried out on the engine at the Cummins facility in Auckland – before & after treatment – show that in just 30 days of operation there was a fuel saving of 7.3% starting at 1.953 km/L improving to 2.106 km/L and the HP improvement was 2.2% effective across the whole speed range. This fact alone means less gear changes under 44 Tonne load per trip, leading to longer operational life expectancy for the vehicle, a silver Western Star.

The owner was most impressed and so was the driver of the vehicle who reported that the vehicle was “quieter with more power, higher oil pressure and lower engine temperature”.

Due to the long-lasting nature of Nanolia FrictionGuard™ tribological nanocoatings the vehicle will continue to demonstrate these benefits for at least 100,000 kms – even after frequent oil changes – following which it can simply be re-applied to extend the fuel savings and improved performance.

Nanolia FrictionGuard™ offers a wide range of specialised tribological nanocoatings for engines, gearboxes and bearings of all sizes, from motorbikes and generators to marine diesels and wind turbines.
