Barcode: 5055058174925

MPN: 427656

Overview:

The Silverline Anti-Freeze Tester (427656) is designed to quickly check the concentration and freeze protection level of ethylene glycol anti-freeze in vehicle cooling systems. Ideal for routine car maintenance, it helps you confirm whether the coolant mix is providing the protection needed in colder conditions. This disc type tester uses a rubber bulb to draw coolant into a clear plastic body, where six coloured floating discs indicate the protection level. An easy-to-read temperature table supports quick interpretation, making it a simple, practical tool for garages, workshops and DIY vehicle owners.

Anti-Freeze Tester Ethylene Glycol 427656 – Key FAQs

• What type of coolant does this tester work with?
  It’s designed for use with ethylene glycol anti-freeze. It’s not intended for other coolant types unless specified by the manufacturer.

• What range does it measure?
  The tester indicates freeze protection from approximately -7°C to -37°C, helping you assess cold-weather protection levels.

• How does the disc type tester show results?
  Six coloured floating discs rise depending on coolant strength. The number/position of discs corresponds to freeze protection shown on the temperature table.

• Can I use it on any vehicle?
  It can be used on many vehicles that use ethylene glycol coolant, but always confirm the coolant type in your system before testing.

• Do I need the engine to be cold to test coolant?
  Yes. Always test with a cool engine to reduce the risk of burns and pressure release when accessing the cooling system.

• Is it difficult to use for DIY checks?
  No, it’s designed to be simple—draw a sample, let the discs settle, then read the table for a quick indication.

• How should I clean the tester after use?
  Rinse with clean water after testing and let it dry before storage. Avoid contaminating coolant systems by keeping the tester clean between uses.
