When should I use antifreeze?
It serves a few different purposes: Antifreeze keeps the water in your radiator and engine from freezing in cold temperatures. Antifreeze also keeps that same water from boiling over in hot temperatures. Antifreeze also serves as a lubricant for the moving parts it comes in contact with, such as the water pump.
Which is the best liquid antifreeze to use?
The most common variety of liquid antifreeze is an IAT formula, or Inorganic Additive Technology. ZEREX™ Original Green is an IAT coolant that has been used for decades and is a formula proven to provide unsurpassed corrosion protection.
What should the temperature be in a car with antifreeze?
With proper antifreeze, a wide temperature range can be tolerated by the engine coolant, such as −34 °F (−37 °C) to +265 °F (129 °C) for 50% (by volume) propylene glycol diluted with water and a 15 psi pressurized coolant system.
What kind of antifreeze is used in sprinkler systems?
Glycerol was historically used as an antifreeze for automotive applications before being replaced by ethylene glycol. Glycerol is mandated for use as an antifreeze in many sprinkler systems. Once antifreeze has been mixed with water and put into use, it periodically needs to be maintained.
What’s the difference between IAT and Zerex Antifreeze?
It’s important to know the differences so you get the correct antifreeze for your vehicle. The most common variety of liquid antifreeze is an IAT formula, or Inorganic Additive Technology. ZEREX™ Original Green is an IAT coolant that has been used for decades and is a formula proven to provide unsurpassed corrosion protection.
Which is the best anti freeze Air Line lubricant?
KILFROST is the only true anti-freeze air line lubricant which will not damage polycarbonate bowls, or the polyurethane or buna seals seen commonly in your cylinders and solenoid valves. KILFROST must be introduced to the air stream by an air line lubricator which will atomize the liquid and meter the flow.
What kind of coolant is used for antifreeze?
IAT Coolant. The most common variety of liquid antifreeze is an IAT formula, or Inorganic Additive Technology. ZEREX™ Original Green is an IAT coolant that has been used for decades and is a formula proven to provide unsurpassed corrosion protection.
Why do you put antifreeze in your car?
Antifreeze is a glycol-based concentrated liquid that you mix with water and use to fill up your car’s cooling system. As the name suggests, antifreeze prevents your engine’s coolant from freezing in sub-zero temperatures.
