Shell Omala S4 GX is an advanced synthetic heavy duty industrial gear oil offering
outstanding lubrication performance under severe operating conditions, including reduced
friction, long service life and high resistance to micro-pitting for optimal gear protection.
Performance Benefits
Long oil life – Maintenance saving
Shell Omala S4 GX is formulated using an advanced
additive system in combination with specially
selected synthetic base fluids to provide outstanding
resistance to breakdown over long duration and/or
high temperature operation.
This performance is recognised by Flender AG
where a formal approval for 20,000 hours (four
years) at 80oC usage as been granted.
Shell Omala S4 GX can operate successfully at bulk
temperatures up to 120oC.
Shell Omala S4 GX offers the potential to
significantly extend service intervals compared to
conventional industrial gear oils.
Excellent wear & corrosion protection
Shell Omala S4 GX is formulated to have excellent
load carrying capacity and micro-pitting
performance providing long component life even
under shock loading conditions. These features
provide benefits over mineral oil-based products in
terms of gear and bearing component life.
Shell Omala S4 GX also has excellent corrosion
protection, even in the presence of contamination by
water and solids.
Maintaining system efficiency
Shell Omala S4 GX can help maintain or enhance
the efficiency of industrial gear systems through
improved low temperature performance and lower
friction in comparison to mineral oil-based products.
This provides better lubrication at low start-up
temperatures.
