Synthetic Industrial gear lubricants
Shell Tivela Oils W are high performance synthetic gear lubricants with special additives to enhance their anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion characteristics.
Applications
High speed/shock loaded industrial gears
Highly loaded industrial gears
Worm gear lubrication
Bearing & circulation lubricants in applications such as plastic calendars where high bulk oil temperatures of up to 200°C may be experienced
Shell Tivela Oils W are not recommended for the lubrication of gears manufactured from bronze alloys containing aluminium
Performance Features
Extremely high viscosity index
A natural feature providing high shear stability without the need for viscosity index improvers. Stays in grade in the most arduous conditions.
Low pour point
Effective lubrication at low start-up temperatures
High load-carrying capacity
Maintains a fluid film between working surfaces in conditions of high load and shock
Exceptional low frictional characteristics
For efficient power transmission
High oxidation & thermal stability
Resistant to the formation of the harmful products of oxidation
Excellent steel-on-steel scuffing protection and steel-on-bronze anti-wear characteristics
For reliable trouble free performance

Health & Safety
Shell Tivela Oils W are unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application, and good standards of industrial and personal hygiene are maintained.
Avoid contact with skin. Use impervious gloves with used oil. After skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water.
For further guidance on Product Health & Safety refer to the appropriate Shell Product Safety Data Sheet.
Protect the environment
Take used oil to an authorised collection point. Do not discharge into drains, soil or water.
