Applications

Applications

N/A
  • Developed specifically for the lubrication of medium-size to large girth gear drives. It provides good adhesion, excellent resistance to high pressure and protection against wear.
  • Shell Gadus S4 OG Clear Oil incorporates synthetic oil with thickening effect and high viscosity mineral oils blended with extreme pressue additves to give a modern high performance open gear lubricant.
  • Slow moving journal bearings includng Sugar Mill bearings.

Additional Information

Additional Information

N/A High Viscosity - The very high viscosity of Shell Gadus S4 OG Clear Oil has been achieved by combining synthetic oil with thickening effect and high viscosity mineral oils. The use of synthetic oil with thickening effect has also produced a lubricant with high viscosity index, which provides good pumpability at low temperatures while maintaining high viscosity at elevated temperatures.

Gear Inspections - Static and dynamic inspections are much easier to view the gear condition without cleaning off the grease or oil as the lube film is clear and you can inspect the gearing through the lube film.

Extreme Pressure Performance - The high viscosity base oils are combined with extreme pressure additives to give the lubricant very high film strength and extreme load carrying capability needed for he protection of heavily loaded open gearing. 

Pumpability - Shell Gadus S4 OG Clear Oil can be applied in automatic lubrication systems previously used for bitumastic lubricants, e.g. Farval, Wakefield, Tecalamit, Lincoln, etc. The viscous oil nature of the lubricant allows it to be gravity fed into equipment centralized lubricators if required.
