Taro Ultra is new range of cylinder lubricants specifically designed to cope with the demands and required flexibility for
IMO 2020. Taro Ultra cylinder lubricants have been fully field tested using a wide variety of fuels expected to be available post IMO 2020 implementation and are approved by major engine manufacturers.
Taro Ultra 140* and Taro Ultra 140A* (hereafter referred to as Taro Ultra 140(A)) are 140 Base Number (BN) cylinder oils specially formulated for use in highly corrosion environments. As ultra-high base number cylinder lubricants, these products are designed for the latest generation of highly efficient two-stroke engines, which have an increased tendency to develop cold corrosion in the cylinder compared to older, less efficient installations.
Taro Ultra 140(A) provides the same level of alkalinity and corrosion protection as Taro Ultra 100, but at lower feed rates, thereby helping to reduce operating costs.
Taro Ultra 140(A) is blended with highly refined base oils and carefully selected additives to provide excellent ring and liner wear protection and piston cleanlinesss in low-speed crosshead diesel engines.
Taro Ultra 140(A) is recommended for lubricating the cylinders of the latest generation large, low-speed marine diesel engines equipped with exhaust abatement technologies operating with heavy fuel oil under all load conditions and highly corrosive operating conditions.
The base number of Taro Ultra 140(A) makes this product ideal for use in engine types and under operating conditions that are sensitive to cold corrosion in the cylinder.
Taro Ultra 140(A) should be used in accordance with OEM guidelines and recommendations.

1. Engine Protection
Effective acid neutralization ensures protection against excessive cylinder liner and piston ring wear resulting from the use of high sulphur heavy fuel oils, thus extending cylinder liner and piston ring life.
2. Engine Cleanliness
Prevents ring sticking and minimizes deposit formation on the pistons and throughout the combustion chamber exhaust areas.
3. Storage Stability
Stable at ambient temperatures and during long-term storage.
4. Compatibility
Miscible and compatible with diesel cylinder lubricants generally known to the international marine trade.
5. Operating cost
Ultra-high base number formulation provides the same level of alkalinity and corrosion protection at lower feedrates, reducing operating cost.
