Railroad & Marine Diesel Engine Oil Additives

Railroad & marine diesel engine oil additives are packages that enhance a lubricant's ability to prevent excessive wear and deposits from high-sulfur-content diesel fuel applications. Afton Chemical additives deliver more cleaning power and wear reduction than ever, with added protection that also reduces corrosion, sludge, and deposits—and increases engine oil life—with:

  • Enhanced antiwear control, for longer engine life and improved operating reliability;
  • Enhanced oxidation control, which extends the life of engine oil and improves fuel economy;
  • Enhanced dispersancy, to reduce sludge and deposits—and help keep engines running cleaner between service intervals. 

Afton Chemical’s railroad engine oil additive package was first to market with modern, non-chlorinated detergent/inhibitor technology. Around the world, railroads have accumulated billions of miles using our additive packages that include both the DI and VII technology. Our railroad DI is available at 13 TBN and 17 TBN treat rates.

The same market-leading non-chlorinated DI technology that supports numerous railroads and engine OEMs is also available for inland marine, tugboat use.
