Castrol EDGE 5W-40


Boosted with TITANIUM FST™ - Strength for Maximum Performance

Description
Advances in engine technology have led to increased power and efficiency, meaning engines work harder and under
higher pressures than ever before.

The only thing keeping metal engine components apart is the oil, so it needs to be strong and remain strong.

Castrol EDGE is our strongest and most advanced range of engine oils. Its TITANIUM FST™ doubles its film strength,
preventing oil film breakdown and reducing friction.
