Veritas 800A Marine
Marine Engine Oil

All Veritas 800A Marine is recommended by Chevron for:
- Large, low speed (less than 250 rpm), two-cycle crosshead diesel engines
- Particularly suitable for engines with oil-cooled pistons
- Older-type marine trunk piston engines with separate cylinder lubrication
- Marine and stationary applications
Wear Protection
Helps protect bearings and bright metals in the engine lubrication systems against corrosive wear from acids formed by combustion.
Engine Cleanliness
Special detergent and ashless dispersant additive system help ensure crankcases and lubricating oil lines are kept free of deposits. The combination of detergency and excellent oxidation stability contributes to clean piston cooling galleries and chambers.
Safeguard from rust and corrosion
Helps prevent corrosion of engine parts when the engine is not in operation. Optimum level of alkalinity reserve helps to neutralize and protect bearings and bright metals against corrosive wear caused by acidic combustion products (which enter the crankcase due to leaks in the connecting rod seals). Helps protect all engine parts against rusting.
Smooth Operation
Helps to prevent the formation of foam and ensure the smooth operation of pumps with a continuous feed of oil to all parts that need lubricating.
Easy Purification
Combination of highly refined base stocks and special detergent additive system provides excellent water tolerance and separation properties which enable efficient purifier operation. Can be cleaned with normal shipboard purifiers. Water washing of Veritas 800A Marine is neither necessary nor recommended.
