MAINTENANCE PRODUCTS
Cat dealers offer a wide range of maintenance products aimed at protecting higher-value equipment components and system. While the use of these products make up a relatively small portion of the total operating cost (~3%)*, they play a vital role in realizing the full value from Caterpillar equipment.
Liquid Filter
Benefits
- Excellent filter performance and protection during the entire filter life.
- Eliminates the possibility of leak paths.
- The Caterpillar center tube design is 30% stronger than metal cores.
- Resistance to pulsating high system pressures experienced during demanding applications.
Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) Air Filter
Benefits
- Less dust gets to the engine, improving fuel economy while reducing wear and maintenance costs – saving customers money.
- Cat UHE Air Filters consistently meet a high manufacturing standard for quality.
- UHE Air Filters live up to six times that of standard filters saving cost and maintenance downtime.
Engine Oil (Cat DEO-ULS™)
Benefits
- Superior performance, protection and life for Cat engines.
- Enhanced protection against piston and ring groove deposits.
- Specially designed to improve the protection of both the engine and after-treatment systems.
- Improves corrosion resistance and wear protection.
- Reduces oil consumption and sludge.
- Provides excellent low temperature startability throughout the life of the oil – from fill until the next change interval.
- Helps prevent viscosity loss from shearing – a common failure characteristic of oils which significantly decreases fluid performance.
- Higher protection against thermal and oxidative breakdown.
Transmission & Drive Train Oil
Benefits
- Developed, tested and approved to meet Caterpillar’s rigorous requirements.
- Protection for critical gears and bearings which require good lubricity properties.
- Allow friction disc material to last longer and perform as expected.
- Wide temperature range protection.
Hydraulic Oil
Benefits
- 6000hr extended drain intervals (up to 3 times that of previous offerings) when monitored with Caterpillar S•O•SSM Services oil analysis.
- Enhanced component life within the protected systems.
- Superior emulsifiers designed to keep water accumulated within hydraulic systems in emulsion.
- Improved contamination control which ultimately helps maintain equipment uptime and reduces owning and operating costs.
- Maintains consistent wear protection at both cold and hot temperatures.
- 250% increase in total life (hrs) of oxidation stability allows for longer drain intervals.
Coolant
Benefits
- High performance standard.
- Eliminates the heat generated from demanding equipment applications.
- Cat Extended Life Coolant (ELC) requires no addition of water or supplemental coolant additive.
- Cat ELC reduces engine coolant and additive costs by as much as 500% compared to conventional coolant.
- Extends the life of the coolant without requiring frequent additive maintenance.
- Extended drain interval of 6000 hours (3x that of conventional products).
- More corrosion resistance and longer engine life.
Grease
Benefits
- Unique thickening agent.
- Protection lowers customer risk and saves money over the long run.
- Designed for moderate to severe applications and climates.
- Wide application range.
