Shell Omala S2 GX 68
Industrial Gear Oils
Shell Omala S2 GX oils are high-quality extreme-pressure (EP) oils designed primarily for the lubrication of heavy-duty industrial gearboxes. Their high load carrying capacity, protection against micropitting and compatibility with seals and paints, combine to offer excellent performance in enclosed gear applications.
Main Applications
- Enclosed industrial gear systems
Shell Omala S2 GX technology provides an effective extreme pressure (EP) formulation designed specifically for enclosed industrial gearboxes using steel-on-steel, spur, helical, or planetary gear drives, including highly loaded systems with splash or forced circulation systems.
Shell Omala S2 GX oils are also suitable for the lubrication of non-geared applications, that include bearings and other steel-on-steel components with splash or forced circulation systems.
- Other applications
Shell offers a wide range of products for other gear applications that have their own specific requirements.
- Shell Omala S4 GXV is recommended for gear systems where a synthetic lubricant is specified, when the longest lifespan is required, or when operating in environments that experience large temperature variations.
- Shell Omala S5 Wind 320 is recommended for wind turbine main gear drives.
- Shell Omala S4 WE, Shell Morlina S4 B and Shell Omala S1 W are recommended for worm-wheel drives.
- For automotive gear applications, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.
