In the construction sector, performance is everything. Heavy-duty equipment must operate under pressure, day after day, without failure. That level of reliability does not happen by chance. It starts with what is happening inside the engine.
The Delo Gold Ultra is a high performance, multigrade, heavy duty diesel engine oil designed to lubricate a wide range of engines requiring API CI-4 or ACEA E7 performance lubricants and is formulated with ISOSYN technology.
Properly lubricating the inside of a heavy-duty diesel engine requires more than just creating a protective film. Caltex premium formula Delo Gold Ultra provides excellent oxidation resistance, deposit and oil consumption control, and wear performance to protect against the loss of engine performance and life.
Delo Gold Ultra has been formulated to specifically protect diesel equipment and vehicles, and to reduce the need for multiple diesel engine oils. Caltex Delo’s industry-leading lubricants have logged billions of kilometres and countless operating hours, providing superior protection to diesel engine parts and maximising fuel efficiency. This helps vehicles and equipment go further, for longer.
What sets Delo Gold Ultra apart is not just its formulation, but how that formulation translates into reliable performance where it matters most.
Caltex Delo with ISOSYN helps to extend service protection, maximise engine durability and life, and minimise operating costs. This is critical in construction environments, where equipment must perform consistently under high loads, frequent stop-start conditions, and extended service intervals. By using Delo Gold Ultra, operators benefit from cleaner engines, reduced wear, and fewer service disruptions. This means more uptime and greater productivity on site.
Thanks to its combination of high-performance hydrocracked base fluids and a carefully balanced metallic detergent and ashless dispersant additive system, Delo Gold Ultra provides excellent overall engine cleanliness in all service conditions. This technology also delivers a high degree of soot dispersancy, which is essential for maintaining oil drain intervals in modern engine designs. Its highly effective antioxidant system inhibits the formation of sludge-forming materials that can cause premature oil thickening and filter plugging, while the very effective dispersant system keeps insoluble contaminants finely suspended in the oil, reducing their ability to block oil filters.
The oil’s high-efficiency dispersant combination and proven metallo-organic anti-wear additive system offer excellent protection against wear of critically loaded components under all operating conditions. Additionally, its multigrade viscosity provides extra protection against wear at start-up and during high temperature operating conditions. Delo Gold Ultra’s outstanding metallic detergent additive system preserves full power and performance by controlling upper-ring-belt deposits under the high temperatures encountered in turbocharged diesel engines.
For maintenance teams, Delo Gold Ultra offers a versatile and simplified solution. It performs well across both older and newer diesel engines and is compatible with a wide variety of diesel fuels. Its broad range of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) approvals allows for use across different types of equipment, helping to streamline lubricant inventories and reduce confusion in busy workshops.
Delo Gold Ultra is suitable for a wide range of applications in the construction sector. These include high-speed four-stroke diesel engines, both naturally aspirated and turbocharged, as well as mixed fleets operating in off-road, heavy-haul, or industrial conditions. Whether you are running excavators, haul trucks, graders or generators, Delo Gold Ultra delivers the performance and protection your operations require.
“When construction equipment is expected to work without fail, every day, the lubricant you choose truly matters,” says Faiz Regal, Technical Support Manager at Astron Energy. “Delo Gold Ultra is designed to give our customers the confidence that their engines are protected, their downtime is reduced, and their operations can keep moving.”
