What GEO Performance Areas Are Important
To Achieve Optimal Engine Life?
Viscosity
Proper viscosity prevents metal to metal contact - wear
Proper viscosity cools the engine
Proper viscosity seals combustion gases in the cylinders
Additive Retention
Maintain proper lubricating properties to keep the engine clean
&minimize wear through the service life of the oil in the engine

CAT G3406 Piston Cleanliness Performance
(Piston Under-crowns)
Excessive under crown deposits show a lack of thermal stability of the formulation
Thick under crown deposits interfere with proper heat transfer & result in shorter
piston life & more frequent overhauls
