Wolver Antifreeze & Coolant Concentrate WG12+

Get Wolver Antifreeze & Coolant Concentrate WG12+ in Kenya

Wolver Antifreeze & Coolant Concentrate WG12+ is an advanced, long-life engine coolant developed using modern Organic Acid Technology (OAT). This high-performance concentrate is engineered to offer superior thermal protection, anti-freeze capability, and comprehensive corrosion resistance for today’s complex cooling systems. Designed for use in both petrol and diesel engines, this coolant provides year-round protection under extreme temperature conditions—both hot and cold—and is compatible with a wide range of engine metals and cooling system components.

The WG12+ formulation is silicate-free, phosphate-free, and amine-free, making it a stable and environmentally responsible solution that significantly extends the service life of cooling systems. It is designed to be mixed with deionized or distilled water before use, typically in a 1:1 ratio, and offers dependable freeze protection down to -38°C and boiling protection up to 135°C when properly mixed and used under pressure.

Product Formulation and Chemical Technology

Wolver WG12+ coolant is based on Organic Acid Technology (OAT), a modern additive system that uses organic carboxylates to inhibit corrosion. Unlike conventional coolants that rely on silicates or phosphates, OAT-based coolants provide targeted corrosion protection only where needed, reducing the formation of scale and prolonging coolant life.

Key Components:

• Ethylene Glycol Base: Ensures low freezing point and high boiling protection.

• Corrosion Inhibitors: Organic acids that bond selectively with metal surfaces to prevent electrochemical reactions.

• Stabilizers and pH Buffers: Maintain optimal pH over the product’s service life to prevent degradation.

• No Mineral Salts: Eliminates silicates, phosphates, borates, and amines for reduced deposit formation and improved water pump longevity.

This formulation allows for extended intervals between coolant changes, with protection often lasting up to 5 years or 250,000 km, depending on application and use conditions.

Function and Performance

Wolver WG12+ performs several essential functions in engine thermal management systems:

1. Freeze Protection

The antifreeze component prevents the coolant from freezing in cold climates, protecting engine components from cracking or other structural damage. A 50/50 mix provides protection to approximately -38°C.

2. Boil-Over Protection

In high-temperature conditions or under heavy engine loads, the coolant’s high boiling point ensures continued heat transfer and prevents overheating. When pressurized, it protects up to 135°C.

3. Corrosion and Cavitation Inhibition

The organic inhibitors form a molecular protective layer on metals like aluminum, iron, copper, and brass, preventing internal corrosion and pitting. It also protects against cavitation, especially in high-speed pumps or liners.

4. Scale and Deposit Prevention

Without phosphates or silicates, the coolant reduces hard-water scaling and sludge, ensuring long-term cooling efficiency.

5. Lubrication

Wolver WG12+ lightly lubricates the water pump, seals, and other internal surfaces, contributing to longer system life and reduced component wear.

Compatibility

WG12+ is compatible with other extended-life OAT coolants that do not contain silicates. However, it is not recommended to mix with conventional green or blue coolants based on older IAT (Inorganic Acid Technology) formulas, as this can reduce protection and form deposits.

Mixing and Dilution Ratios

Being a concentrate, Wolver WG12+ must be diluted before use. For best results, use distilled or deionized water to avoid introducing minerals that can lead to scale formation.

Recommended Ratios:

For most environments, a 50:50 dilution offers the ideal balance between freeze and boil-over protection.

Key Features and Benefits

• Extended Life Protection: Offers long-lasting performance of up to 5 years or 250,000 km, reducing maintenance intervals.

• Modern OAT Chemistry: Free of silicates, phosphates, and amines, minimizing scale and improving compatibility with modern materials.

• Thermal Efficiency: Enhances heat transfer, helping maintain optimal engine temperature even in extreme conditions.

• Wide Material Compatibility: Safe for use in systems with aluminum, iron, steel, brass, copper, plastics, and rubber components.

• Prevents Common Cooling Failures: Inhibits corrosion, cavitation, scale, and deposit formation.

• Environmentally Responsible: Biodegradable additives and long service life help reduce environmental waste.

• Vibrant Color: The coolant’s red-pink hue makes it easy to identify during servicing and helps detect leaks.

Usage Instructions

1. Drain and Flush System
Before filling with WG12+, drain the old coolant completely. Flush the system using water or a radiator flush product to remove residue.

2. Mix Properly
In a clean container, mix Wolver WG12+ with distilled water according to the desired protection level.

3. Fill Slowly
Add the premixed coolant to the radiator and reservoir. Avoid overfilling and allow air bubbles to escape.

4. Bleed the System
Run the engine with the heater on and bleed any trapped air to prevent hot spots or uneven circulation.

5. Recheck Levels
Once the engine has cooled, check the coolant level again and top up if necessary.

Maintenance and Change Intervals

While Wolver WG12+ is a long-life coolant, it should still be inspected periodically. Key signs of deterioration include:

• Discoloration (brown, cloudy)

• Unusual odor

• Rust particles in the reservoir

• Sludge or deposits in hoses or radiator

Under normal conditions, coolant replacement is recommended every 5 years or 250,000 km, whichever comes first.

Storage and Safety

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Keep sealed and avoid contamination.

• Shelf Life: Stable for up to 5 years in unopened containers.

• Handling: Avoid ingestion and contact with eyes or skin. Use protective gloves and eyewear during handling.

• Disposal: Dispose of used coolant responsibly through a certified waste handler. Do not pour down the drain or into the soil.
