Protect
Enhanced Engine Protection
The Clean & Glide Technology™ in Techron® is designed to coat and protect metal surfaces. This helps to reduce friction and wear, keeping your engine clean to deliver optimum performance.
The ability of Techron® to protect metal surfaces was proven in the High Frequency Reciprocating Rig (HFRR) lubricity test. The HFRR lubricity test is a standard test for diesel, designed to determine its ability to protect metal parts in the fuel pumps that rely on diesel as a lubricant. The HFRR lubricity test was modified to safely test the lubricating properties of petrol.

Performance
Maximise Power
Techron® removes deposits that can rob your engine of power. With continued use, it will also help to reduce friction in your engine. Less friction means less resistance in your engine, so more power can be brought to your wheels.
Efficiency
Improved fuel economy
Engines work best when they are clean. Caltex with Techron® is proven to clean vital engine parts effectively, helping your engine burn fuel more efficiently, making your journeys more economical for you.
The benefits of our Clean and Glide Technology™ were proven in Chevron’s internal laboratory tests. Laboratory tests simulating the build-up of Techron® in the crankcase lubricant with continual use demonstrate the efficiency improvement built in to our new Clean & Glide Technology™.
In controlled laboratory tests simulating continual use, Clean & Glide Technology™ produced results, which showed 2-3% less fuel consumption compared to our previous Techron® formula*.4.
