Applications
- Wind turbines and other inaccessible installations
- Wind turbines and other inaccessible installations
Shell Omala S4 GX is particularly recommended for certain systems where extra long life is required, maintenance is infrequent or systems are inaccessible.
- Enclosed industrial gear systems
Recommended for industrial reduction gear systems operating under severe operating conditions, such as high load, very low or elevated temperatures and wide temperature variations
- Other applications
Shell Omala S4 GX oils are suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splash-lubricated systems
For highly loaded worm drives the Shell Omala “W” series oils are recommended.
For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.
