The Difference Between Castrol Magnatec and Edge
1 Answers
Differences between Magnatec and Edge: 1. Base oil: Magnatec uses Group III hydroprocessed base oil, while Edge 0W series uses 100% Group IV base oil, and the 5W series uses a blend of Group IV and Group III hydrocracked base oil. 2. Synthesis: Magnatec is semi-synthetic, while Edge is fully synthetic. 3. Engine protection: Edge provides comprehensive engine protection, whereas Magnatec focuses on cold start/stop-start protection. Additional information: 1. Edge: (1) Castrol's top-tier engine lubricant, comparable to Mobil 1 and Shell Helix Ultra. (2) All Edge oils have API SN rating, with four viscosity grades available: 0W-40, 5W-40, 5W-30 and 10W-60, catering to different driving conditions. 2. Magnatec: (1) API/Viscosity: SN/5W-40. (2) Working principle: Prevents oil droplets from slipping off key engine components. Contains unique intelligent molecules that cling to engine surfaces like magnets, forming an additional protective layer even when the engine is off.
