Coolant is a liquid substance that regulates the temperature of a system. It's used in engines to fill the cooling system, act as a heat exchange fluid, and lower the freezing point of water
Here are some benefits of coolant:
- Temperature Regulator: Coolant lowers the freezing point of the cooling system in winter and raises the boiling point in summer thus protecting the engine from getting too hot or too cold.
- Corrosion protection: Coolant protects the engine and cooling system from rust and corrosion year-round.
- Foam inhibition: Coolant inhibits foam formation.
- Heat transfer: Coolant additives can reduce the surface tension of water, allowing it to absorb and transfer heat from the engine more efficiently .
- Lubrication: Coolant lubricates the water pump seal.
When choosing a coolant, you can consider factors like:
Temperature requirements, Heat transfer efficiency, Corrosion resistance, Material compatibility, Environmental considerations, Safety concerns.
Coolant comes in different colors because different brands use different chemicals & additives , which are designed for specific types of engines.
For example, Ethylene Glycol is green and Dexcool is orange
We at SANLUB offer different kinds of COOLANTS depending on varied customer demands.
