What equipment can I use Cermax Air 2-Cycle Oil in?

Cermax Air Ceramic 2-Cycle Multi-Ratio Oil works in all 2-cycle engines including chainsaws, string trimmers, weed eaters, leaf blowers, hedge trimmers, air tools, golf carts, watercraft, and any other 2-cycle powered equipment. The multi-ratio formulation is compatible with standard 2-cycle fuel-to-oil mixing ratios, making it a direct replacement for your current 2-cycle oil.

What makes Cermax Air different from regular 2-cycle oils?

Cermax Air contains Cerma's proprietary STM-3 Nano Silicon Carbide technology that goes beyond simple lubrication. The SiC particles bond with metal surfaces to prevent carbon deposits, increase power and compression, lower operating temperatures, and reduce vibration. This results in longer engine life, improved fuel economy, reduced emissions, and less wear on internal components.

How do I use Cermax Air 2-Cycle Oil?

Add the required dose of Cermax Air 2-Cycle Oil to your fuel oil mixture tank using the standard fuel-to-oil ratio recommended for your equipment. The engine can be running or off during application. After adding the oil, run the engine for a minimum of 10 minutes to experience the full benefits of the STM-3 ceramic protection technology.

Will Cermax Air reduce carbon buildup in my chainsaw or trimmer?

Yes. One of the key benefits of STM-3 technology is preventing contaminants from depositing on metal surfaces. Cermax Air significantly reduces carbon buildup on pistons, exhaust ports, and spark arrestors, which is a common problem with 2-cycle engines. Less carbon means more consistent power, easier starting, and longer intervals between maintenance and cleaning.

What sizes are available for Cermax Air 2-Cycle Oil?

Cermax Air Ceramic 2-Cycle Multi-Ratio Oil is available in two sizes: a 16-ounce bottle for regular use and a 1-quart (32-ounce) bottle for greater value and extended supply. Both sizes contain the same advanced STM-3 ceramic technology formulation for complete 2-cycle engine protection.

Cermax Air Ceramic 2-Cycle Multi-Ratio Oil — STM-3 Nano Silicon Carbide Technology | Protection for All 2-Cycle Engines

One oil for every 2-cycle engine you own. Cermax Air Ceramic 2-Cycle Multi-Ratio Oil delivers advanced ceramic engine protection powered by STM-3 Nano Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology — the same ceramic compound used across Cerma's full line of engine treatments, motor oils, and fuel treatments. Unlike conventional 2-cycle oils that only lubricate, Cermax Air's SiC particles bond to metal surfaces at the molecular level — creating a permanent ceramic barrier that cleans, protects, and reduces friction far beyond what petroleum-based 2-cycle oils can achieve. Works with all standard fuel-to-oil mixing ratios (16:1, 32:1, 40:1, 50:1). Formulated for ultralight, light sport, and experimental aircraft as well as all ground-based 2-cycle equipment. Available in 16 oz and 1 Quart sizes.

✅ Low Smoke & Reduced Emissions: Cleaner burn for reduced toxic exhaust
✅ PTFE-Free & Solvent-Free: Environmentally safe formula made in the USA

🔬 Why 2-Cycle Engines Need Ceramic Protection

2-cycle engines are inherently harder on oil than 4-cycle engines — the oil burns with the fuel in every combustion cycle, leaving behind carbon deposits on pistons, ports, and exhaust. Conventional 2-cycle oils can't prevent this buildup. Cermax Air changes the equation. Its STM-3 technology applies a permanent Nano Silicon Carbide (SiC) matrix to metal surfaces. SiC has a Mohs hardness of 9.5 (nearly as hard as diamond) and a melting point of 2,730°C. This ceramic barrier prevents carbon from adhering to metal, keeps ports and exhaust passages clean, reduces friction and heat, and extends the life of engines that would otherwise wear out quickly under the harsh conditions of 2-cycle combustion.
