Antifreeze

Antifreeze-based coolant is crucial for street vehicles. Formulated with ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, antifreeze reduces the freezing point and raises the boiling point, so the coolant remains liquid under wider temperature extremes. Most antifreeze formulas also include ingredients to fight corrosion inside your cooling system, and to lubricate the seals inside the water pump. Antifreeze is available as a concentrate (to be mixed 50/50 with water) or as a ready-to-use pre-mixed coolant.

Antifreeze coolant should be checked periodically, especially in cooler climates, as its corrosion-fighting properties decline over time. Be sure to keep it out of reach of children and animals!

Race Engine Coolant

There are lots of reasons to avoid putting antifreeze in competition engines:

They run much hotter, and antifreeze doesn’t actually transfer heat efficiently enough to make a difference
Race cars don’t usually have to park in below-freezing temperatures
Antifreeze robs motor oil of its lubricating properties, and under higher racing pressures, the risk of leaks and contamination is much higher
Some tracks and sanctioning bodies have restrictions regarding glycol-based coolants due to safety concerns

Race engines can use plain water as coolant, but you can also do better. Water-based coolants with surfactants to reduce surface tension transfer heat even more efficiently, and there are waterless coolants, too. Summit also carries coolant additives that can improve the properties of your existing coolant.

Red Line SuperCool with WaterWetter

Red Line SuperCool with WaterWetter maximizes cooling system performance in gasoline and diesel engines with superior protection, reducing operating temperature by up to 20 degrees F. This product doubles the wetting ability of water to improve heat transfer and reduce cylinder head temperatures. Compatible with all glycol antifreeze and coolants, WaterWetter contains corrosion inhibitors to satisfy the same ASTM corrosion tests that glycol-based antifreezes are designed to pass ASTM D2570 and ASTM D1384. Red Line's WaterWetter provides excellent rust and corrosion protection for modern cast iron, aluminum, and brass systems. Use SuperCool with a long-life antifreeze if freezing temperatures are to be encountered. 5 year / 150,000 mile protection.
