Shell Gadus S3 T100 Greases are high technology greases designed to give optimum performance for grease lubrication in industrial bearings. They are based on mineral oil with a special diurea thickener to give long life, low wear and shear-stable properties at high temperatures. In high temperature applications Shell Gadus S3 T100 Greases will outperform even fully synthetic (PAO) lithium complex greases proposed in the market.

Features

• Outstanding life at high temperatures.
• Excellent wear protection, mechanical stability at high temperatures, and oxidation resistance.
• Low oil separation.
• Excellent corrosion resistance - Provides protection from the elements of corrosion.
• Water resistant - Withstands washing with water, preventing loss of protection.
• Lead and nitrite free - For safe handling.
• High temperature performance - The diurea thickener used in Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases have a high melting point and the grease performance is limited only by the properties of the base oil and additive components.
• Corrosion protection - When a bearing is running, most high quality greases can maintain an adequate lubricating film even when the grease is loaded with water. However when the grease bearing is idle corrosion may occur causing pitting which can be destructive. Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases are formulated with corrosion inhibitors to help protect bearing surfaces even when the grease is contaminated with water. The lubrication properties of Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases are unimpaired by small quantities of salt water.
• Load carrying capacity - Although not specifically designated extreme pressure, Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases have been used very successfully in slow moving, loaded large bearings such as those found in continuous casters in steel plants.
• Oxidation stability - Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases have a superior high temperature oxidation inhibitor system to ensure that they will withstand high operating temperatures without forming deposits. Unlike the soap thickeners used in most greases, the diurea thickener in Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases does not catalyse grease oxidation, indeed the diurea thickener offers inherent anti-oxidant properties. This contributes to longer grease life at higher temperatures. The base oil component of Shell Gadus S3 T100 greases is a specially selected high viscosity index mineral oil with excellent oxidation and evaporation resistance.
