Antifreeze isn’t just about freeze protection. It’s about chemistry.
In this Inside the Brands episode, CRP Automotive explains why corrosion inhibitors are the most important part of antifreeze, and how using the wrong formulation can quietly damage critical engine components over time.
Different engines are designed around specific inhibitor packages. When the wrong antifreeze is used, those inhibitors may not protect the system properly. The result can include water pump pitting, fan damage, and internal corrosion inside the radiator and cooling passages.
This video explains why antifreeze is not interchangeable.
How incorrect corrosion inhibitors lead to cooling system damage.
Why OE-specific formulations matter for long-term reliability.
Pentosin antifreeze is formulated based on application requirements, with European formulations produced in Germany and Asian formulations produced in Japan to match OE cooling system designs.
If you service European or Asian vehicles, understanding antifreeze chemistry can help prevent avoidable cooling system failures.
