Coolants
Coolants are an important part of a car’s cooling system and are designed to carry heat away from the engine, protect against frost, and help prevent rust, corrosion, and deposits in the system. Whether the car is used for daily driving, performance, motorsport, or custom builds, it is important to choose a coolant that matches both the engine, the materials in the system, and the load the cooling system is exposed to.
A coolant does more than just keep the temperature down. It also helps protect the water pump, radiator, hoses, cylinder head, and engine block against wear and internal deposits. That is why it is important to use the correct type of coolant and not only look at the color, as different types can have different chemistry and different properties. On modern cars and performance projects, the correct choice of coolant is an important part of both reliability and durability.
Coolants are used both for regular service, cooling system rebuilds, and the construction of new projects where the entire system must operate stably under both normal and heavy load. On some cars, the focus is on frost protection and long service life, while on other projects it is also about efficient heat dissipation and stable temperature control under high load.
