Description
Product Description
FUCHS FRICOFIN DP 50 is an ultra-high-performance ready-to-use Si-OAT (Silicated Organic Acid Technology) coolant designed for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, trucks, buses, mining equipment, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, and stationary engines. This premium monoethylene glycol (MEG)-based premixed antifreeze coolant provides long-life protection against freezing, overheating, cavitation, corrosion, and deposit formation, especially in modern aluminium engines and heavy-duty cooling systems.
FUCHS FRICOFIN DP 50 is a 50% monoethylene glycol coolant premixed with demineralised water, ready for direct use without additional dilution. The advanced Si-OAT technology combines organic acid corrosion inhibitors with fast-reacting silicate protection to provide excellent protection for aluminium, cast iron, steel, copper, brass, seals, plastics, and hoses. The formulation is free from nitrite, amine, and phosphate (NAP-free), supporting extended coolant service intervals and modern engine requirements.
