Description
Castrol Calibration Oil 4113 Diesel Injector Test Fluid (20 L canister) is a specialised mineral oil‑based calibration and storage lubricant designed for use in diesel injector calibration equipment and for the preservation of diesel fuel injection system components during storage or transit. It conforms fully with the ISO 4113 test fluid standard and the legacy Lucas CAV 7‑10‑106 specification, making it suitable for workshop and service‑centre calibration procedures where precise flow characteristics and low viscosity are required.
This fluid helps ensure that diesel injectors and pumps operate correctly following calibration and can provide effective rust prevention on internal parts for extended periods (in typical conditions up to about one year without the need to clean the equipment immediately after calibration).
Key Features & Benefits
-
ISO 4113‑compliant test fluid: Designed specifically for diesel injector and pump calibration systems.
-
Low viscosity mineral base: Offers stable and reproducible flow characteristics at calibration temperatures.
-
Rust prevention: Provides corrosion protection for injector components during storage or between uses.
-
Storage protection: Can preserve internal parts of calibrated equipment for extended periods without cleaning.
-
No harmful additives: While it’s free from aggressive additives, it may have a defatting effect on skin — protective gloves or barrier cream are recommended during handling.
Typical Applications
-
Calibration of diesel fuel injectors and injection pumps in service shops and testing facilities.
-
Storage lubricant and corrosion preventive for internal engine fuel system components when not in use.
