OREANDA-NEWS. July 05, 2012. The TANEKO's synthetic oil plant shipped the first batch of products for "AvtoVAZ" on June 25. The amount of 65 tons of "Tatneft Translux" synthetic gear oil was sent to the customer, reported the press-centre of TATNEFT.

Beginning in July this innovative product will be used to fill in the gear box at the conveyor belt of "AvtoVAZ". The distinctive characteristics of the oil are: durability, low pour point and low oxidation at high temperatures, which allows using the oil in different climatic conditions. The minimal volatility reduces the frequency of topping up the oil and increases the operation duration by 1.5-2 times in comparison with mineral oils.

The "Tatneft Translux" oil is intended for use on vehicles with higher-power engines, including engines with fuel injection and higher-power diesel engines with mild supercharge boosting that meets the requirements of Euro-4 for toxic components emission. The oil is applicable for all modern cars, including imported brand cars.

The products are delivered to the customer by road transport. The plans envisage that 840 tons of oil will be shipped to the customer by the end of 2012.
