Why choose QT Protect 20W-40 SG/MA2
Duckhams QT Protect 20W-40 SG/MA2 is a mineral multi-grade engine oil, designed using updated additive technology and high-quality base oils to meet the requirements of older four-stroke motorcycle engines, including those with integral gearboxes and immersed wet clutches. Duckhams QT Protect 20W-40 SG/MA2 has been formulated to balance the requirements of lubricating a four-stroke engine, whilst still maintaining the optimum friction characteristics to ensure consistent, positive clutch response. Suitable for use in older air and liquid-cooled four-stroke motorcycle engines where an API SG oil is recommended, including those with integral gearboxes and immersed wet clutches. In wet-clutch motorcycles the same oil lubricates the engine, gearbox and clutch. Duckhams QT Protect 20W-40 SG/MA2 is formulated to protect all three, so no separate gearbox oil is needed. It can also be used in motorcycle gearboxes where the manufacturer specifies an SAE 20W-40 engine oil meeting JASO MA or MA2.
- Meets the friction requirements of JASO MA2 (and JASO MA) standard, ensuring suitability for use in engines with immersed, or wet, clutches. Reduces clutch slippage giving safe, consistent clutch grip, leading to smooth gear change operations. Protects gears and discs from pitting and corrosion.
- Designed to provide anti-wear and corrosion protection for older motorcycles, irrespective of riding style, throughout the oil drain interval, reducing component wear and extending component and engine life.
- Balanced detergent and dispersant additives reduce sludge and deposit build-up. Sludge and deposit control provide excellent engine cleanliness, maintaining engine performance from oil change to oil change.
- Good oxidation and thermal stability prolong the life of the oil, ensuring the engine is suitably lubricated, giving sustained engine performance.
- Multi-grade engine oil designed to operate over a wide range of temperatures, providing year-round protection.
