CASTROL BIOSTAT RANGE

Environmentally responsible stern tube/gear oil.

BIOSTAT contains selected additives

BioStat contains selected additives ensuring good oxidation stability, good anti-corrosion and anti-wear properties and low aquatic toxicity. The combination of base oils used in BioStat endows it with a very high viscosity index and an extremely low pour point as well as giving excellent compatibility with elastomeric seal materials. The careful choice of the synthetic base oils enables the product to operate in a wide system temperature.
