ELF's highly diversified range of products

Track and Off-Road

Discover HTX range for competition. HTX products give the best protection against wear and improve engines cleanliness. Development of our range of lubricants has been aimed at finding how to achieve maximum gains in power by reducing overall engine friction for the particular applications in question.

Lubricants for Karting

Discover HTX range for karting. With 100 cc engines running without gear-boxes, the very high rotation speeds produce extremely violent stresses on the piston/sleeve assembly whenever the engine is slowed down or accelerated. These engines are very prone to jammed pistons and seized connecting rods, and therefore it is important to provide specific lubrication: our products meet these requirements exactly. They also offer exceptional engine cleanliness properties and significantly reduce carbon deposits in the exhaust.

Collection Racing Cars

The new range « HTX Rétro » of specific lubricants for collection racing cars has been elaborated to answer to the particular needs expressed by the owners.
Indeed, modern lubricants, not adapted to the materials of this time, can have some inconveniences as for some examples to assault elastomers and provoke oils leaks, to be at the origin of compression problems.
