In a fleet of vehicles, every detail counts: the fuel is, the pressure of the tires, filters... and, above all, the lubricant.
Choose the correct oil not only prevents breakdowns, it also improves performance, extends the useful life of the engine and reduces fuel consumption.
In Constantine Garay and Children (CGeH) we are a distributor specializing in industrial lubricants and automotive, and help you identify what type of oil you need for your fleet according to their use, size, and conditions of work.
The lubricant acts as a protective barrier between the moving parts of the engine. Reduces friction, dissipates heat, clean the residues and protects against corrosion.
Using a wrong product, or to extend the change intervals may shorten the engine life, increase consumption, and increase the maintenance costs.
In a transport fleet or commercial vehicles, these effects are amplified: a bad choice can affect simultaneously to tens of units.
Each engine has its own demands. Before selecting an oil for your entire fleet, discusses the following aspects:
Engine type: gasoline, diesel, hybrid or gas. Each one requires additives and viscosity specific.
Age of vehicle: new engines often require synthetic lubricants of lower viscosity; old motors require increased protection, and thicker oils.
Terms of use: long routes, urban traffic, extreme temperatures, or working with charging directly affect the performance of the oil.
Standards of the manufacturer: always follow the specifications ACEA or API recommended in the manual.
Maintenance intervals: a higher quality oil allows to extend the periods between changes without losing protection.
A fleet of well-lubricated means less breakdowns, fewer stops, and more cost-effective.
Lubricants mineral:
Suitable for engines that are old or low performance. They are more economical, but require frequent changes.
Lubricants, semi-synthetic:
Offer a balance between protection, price, and durability. Ideal for mixed fleets vehicles (new and used).
Synthetic lubricants:
The more advanced option. Withstand high temperatures, reduce friction and maximize fuel efficiency. Perfect for transport fleets intensive, heavy machinery or vehicles, long-haul.
In CGeHwe recommend combining durability and performance with oils approved by leading brands, such as Castrol, Total, Repsol or our lines own YAHIOL and GODDESS.
Fleets of transport and logistics:
Diesel engines, high-mileage, with long-term use and at a constant load. Require synthetic lubricants with high viscosity index, and protection against oxidation.
Fleet of urban delivery:
Engines that work with starts and stops frequently. Need oils with good fluidity in cold and wear resistance.
Fleets of industrial or agricultural:
Heavy machinery, tractors or hydraulic equipment. Recommended lubricants and high-performance formulations with additives, anti-foaming and anti-corrosion.
Electric vehicles or hybrid:
Although its maintenance is less, some components (transmissions, gearboxes) also require specific lubricants for low friction and thermal stability.
Use the same oil for all vehicles.
Choose the lubricant cheaper without regard to the load or to the working temperature.
Do not register the changes and mixtures.
Ignore the analysis of oil or not to check levels regularly.
Do not train the maintenance personnel in the proper use of each product.
These errors are common in fleet medium-sized or larger, they tend to cause unnecessary costs and loss of overall efficiency.
Implements a preventive maintenance plan centralized.
Controls-change intervals and records the consumption.
Standardizes products by type of vehicle or application.
Done periodic analysis of the used oil for wear or contamination.
Make sure to learn a dealer as Constantine Garay and Children (CGeH) to adjust the lubricants according to the season, the type of motor or the mileage.
