Shell Gadus S3 V460XD Greases are premium heavy-duty greases designed for use in a wide range of industrial and mining applications.
They are based on a high viscosity index mineral oil and lithium complex soap thickener. They contains selected additives to offer excellent high temperature oxidation performance and enhanced extreme pressure, antiwear and anti-corrosion properties. They also contains molybdenum disulphide to provide additional resistance to shock loading.
Performance Features
Wide Operating Temperature Range. Ball and rolling element bearings operating continuously at temperatures between -15°C and + 150°C.
Prolonged Grease Service Life. Enhanced oxidation resistance prolongs grease life at higher temperatures, allowing extended re-greasing intervals.
Excellent Mechanical Stability. Maintains consistency over long periods even in the most severe conditions.
For Shock Loaded Conditions. Resists break down, softening and subsequent leakage under shock loads.
Enhance Extreme Pressure and Antiwear Properties. Rig tests confirm E.P. additives in Shell Gadus S3 V460XD prolong the life of bearings subject to heavy loads and shock loads.
Low Water Wash-Out. Good water resistant properties.
Effective Corrosions Protection. Ensures components/bearings do not fail due to corrosion.
