Overview
Shell Omala S2 GX 460 is a high-quality extreme-pressure (EP) oil designed primarily for the lubrication of heavy-duty industrial gearboxes. Its advanced formula provides an effective extreme pressure (EP) solution specifically for enclosed industrial gearboxes. The oil is suitable for steel-on-steel, spur, helical, or planetary gear drives, including highly loaded systems with splash or forced circulation systems. Shell Omala S2 GX 460 also excels in the lubrication of non-geared applications such as bearings and other steel-on-steel components. The oil's long life is ensured through its oxidation stability and resistance to thermal stress, contributing to a reduced total cost of ownership. Users benefit from excellent wear and micropitting protection, and the overall efficiency of the gear system is maintained by optimized water separation performance, corrosion resistance, and foam control.
