Formulated to resist oxidation, control soot, and reduce metal-to-metal wear, the oil uses friction modifiers—Micron Moly and Penetro—to form a protective lubricating film that helps maintain efficiency under heavy loads and high temperatures. It meets API CK-4 performance criteria and is compatible with engines using EGR, DPF, DOC, and SCR systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does SynShield OTR Plus protect engines under severe service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtection comes from a combination of synthetic base oils, targeted additives, and friction modifiers that minimize wear and prevent deposit build-up.
