Delo® 1000 Marine

Delo® 1000 Marine lubricants are high-performance diesel engine oils for medium-speed trunk piston diesel engines. Delo 1000 Maine lubricants are blended with highly refined base oils and carefully selected additives. They have very good viscosity control when used in severe high-temperature service, and their great BN retention characteristics prevent corrosive wear over long periods of operation. The unique detergent and dispersant additive system provides piston cleanliness and soot handling. This results in extreme reduction of both “hot” (piston lands and grooves, piston undercrown, purifier preheaters) and “cold” (crankcase, cambox, rocker area, fuel pumps, purifier bowl) deposits. Delo 1000 Maine lubricants provide a high degree of water tolerance and have good water separation.

Recommended Uses

Delo 1000 Marine lubricants are recommended for medium-speed trunk piston diesel engines burning distillate and low sulfur fuels. The good load carrying capacity of Delo 1000 Marine lubricants also makes these suitable for use in engine reduction gears and other applications where EP properties are required. Delo 1000 Marine should be used in accordance with OEM guidelines and recommendations.
