SHELL OMALA OIL 460 EXTREME PRESSURE INDUSTRIAL GEAR OIL ISO VISCOSITY GRADE 460 DESCRIPTION Shell Omala Oil 460 is a premium quality, lead-free, extreme pressure ( EP) gear oil for use in all types of industrial enclosed gear assemblies. Shell Omala Oil 460 is also suitable as a bearing oil for highly loaded plain bearings, and is particularly suitable for the lubrication of steel-on-bronze industrial worm gears. Shell Omala Oil is also available in ISO Viscosity Grades 68, 100, 150, 220, 320, 680, and 800. PERFORMANCE FEATURES LEAD FREE FORMULATION Shell Omala Oil 460 utilises a specially selected sulphur phosphorus EP additive which gives an overall performance level superior to that of leaded EP gear oils, while at the same time satisfying the environmental requirements for non-leaded products. WATER SHEDDING PROPERTIES Shell Omala Oil 460 sheds water very readily and consequently is highly resistant to emulsion formation. RESISTANCE TO CORROSION Shell Omala Oil 460 contains anti-corrosion additives, that effectively cope with the water which invariably seems to find its way into enclosed gear boxes through the air vent, particularly in marine or high humidity locations. OXIDATION AND THERMAL STABILITY The ability to withstand high thermal loading, while affording increased resistance to oxidation, is of particular importance in a premium quality, heavy duty gear lubricant. Bulk oil temperatures of Shell Omala Oil 460 may be raised as high as 100° C without adverse effects. LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY The load carrying capacity of Shell Omala Oil 460, as determined in laboratory tests and confirmed by international field experience, ensures low gear tooth wear, particularly under high load conditions. SUMMARY OF BENEFITS • High load carrying capacity and superior frictional characteristics ensure low gear tooth wear and help reduce oil temperatures and frictional energy losses. • Enhanced oxidation resistance and thermal stability protect against deposit and sludge formation resulting in longer lubricant and filter life and reduced equipment downtime. • Reduced tendency to foam or form emulsions which can have detrimental effects on antiwear performance and bearing fatigue life. • Formulated to protect steel and yellow metal components from rust, corrosion or chemical attack by aggressive EP additives.
