SIL LUBRICANTS Puts Its Technology to the Test at the 1000 DUNAS Raid 2026

SIL LUBRICANTS renews its commitment to high-competition motorsport for the fourth consecutive year as the official sponsor and technical collaborator of the 1000 DUNAS Raid 2026. Held in the demanding landscapes of Morocco, this legendary Rally-Raid event once again consolidates itself as the ultimate real-world testing ground for our motorcycle and automotive product lines.

An Extreme Challenge Marked by Weather Conditions

The 2026 edition of the 1000 DUNAS Raid is testing both the physical endurance of the riders and the mechanical reliability of the machines. Heavy and unusual rainfall across the region has transformed the terrain, forcing the organization to constantly adapt and modify the routes stage by stage.

Mud, river crossings, wet dunes, and severe temperature fluctuations are placing maximum stress on the engines. For SIL LUBRICANTS, this harsh environment represents the perfect opportunity to prove the performance, thermal stability, and protective capacity of our advanced formulations under the most complex conditions.

Technical Partnership with the MALLE Category Riders

One of the highlights of our involvement is our direct support for the riders in the MALLE category (unassisted). These riders face the challenge without any external mechanical team, carrying out all maintenance work on their own motorcycles at the end of each day.

To ensure maximum engine protection across the 6 grueling stages of the race, the riders rely on:

  • SIL FACTORY 10W50 & 10W60: High-performance synthetic lubricants engineered to provide an ultra-resistant protective film under high temperatures and extreme RPMs.
  • MOTO CARE Range: A complete ecosystem of specialized technical sprays and maintenance products (chain lubricants, air filter cleaners, dielectric sprays, and penetrants), essential for combating sand, water, and mud accumulation.

Commitment to Innovation and Quality

The experience gained in international endurance competitions like the 1000 DUNAS Raid is transferred directly into our R&D processes. Every kilometer covered in the desert allows us to continuously evolve the entire product range that we supply to our customers and distributors worldwide.

From the entire team at SIL LUBRICANTS, we wish the best of luck to all riders, mechanics, and organizers in the final stretch of the race.

See you at the finish line!
