APPLICATIONS
Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 is a cylinder lubricant formulated with high quality base stocks,
designed to lubricate and protect the pistons, piston rings and cylinder liners from the harmful
effects of combustion by products. Furthermore, its allows the formation of a suitable oil film
between piston rings and cylinder liners of low speed two-stroke crosshead engines fuelled
with low sulphur residual fuel.
CUSTOMER ADVANTAGES
• Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 is a cylinder lubricant with an alkaline reserve suitable to efficiently
prevent acidic corrosion that may occur on the cylinder liners when use fuels with a low
sulphur content.
• The peculiar additives used in the product ensure the neutralization of the acidic
condensates deriving from the combustion process, in order to prevent the corrosive
phenomena.
• The high thermal stability of Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 ensures optimum lubrication even in
the largest bore engines operating at the highest mean effective pressures.
• The very high detergent and dispersant characteristics of the product prevent a build-up of
carbon deposits in the piston ring grooves, which can lead to ring sticking or breakage.
• Eni PUNICA 540 SAE 50 is able to form a stable oil film and spread uniformly over the
cylinder liner surface. These properties ensures a suitable lubrication between piston rings
and cylinder liners and protects against abrasive wear, which lead to a reduction in
maintenance and related costs.
