Lubricating heavy-duty industrial gears, including those in gearboxes that use helical and steel spur gears is easy with Shell Omala S2 G 460. This high-quality, extreme-pressure oil is formulated to resist thermal and chemical breakdown; it also resists the formation of sludge. With excellent wear and corrosion properties, Shell Omala S2 G 460 is excellent at maintaining system efficiency and prolonging the span of time between maintenance operations.

Long oil life Maintenance saving Shell Omala S2 G oils are formulated to resist thermal and chemical breakdown throughout the maintenance interval. They withstand high thermal loading and resist the formation of sludge to provide extended oil life capability, even with bulk oil temperatures of up to 100 C in certain applications. Excellent wear & corrosion protection Excellent load carrying capacity reduces gear tooth and bearing wear on both steel and bronze components. Shell Omala S2 G has excellent corrosion protection, protecting both steel and bronze components, even in the presence of contamination by water and solids. Maintaining system efficiency Shell Omala S2 G oils have excellent water separation properties, such that excess water can be drained easily from lubrication systems to help extend the life of the gears and ensure efficient lubrication of the contact areas. Water can greatly accelerate surface fatigue of gears and bearings as well as promoting ferrous corrosion on internal surfaces. Water contamination should therefore be avoided or removed as quickly as possible after the occurrence.
Main Applications
      Enclosed industrial gear systems
      Shell Omala S2 G oils are formulated using an effective sulphur-phosphorus additive system to provide an extreme pressure performance which allow trouble-free application in most enclosed industrial gearboxes using steel spur and helical gears.

Highly loaded gears

Shell Omala S2 G oils have an effective full extreme pressure (EP) additive system allowing them to be used in highly-loaded gear systems.

Other applications
Shell Omala S2 G oils are suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splash-lubricated systems.

For highly-loaded worm drives the Shell Omala series oils are recommended.
For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • Shell Omala S2 G 460 is formulated for enclosed industrial gear systems, including gearboxes that use helical and steel spur gears. It is also suitable for lubricating bearings and other components in circulating and splash-lubricated systems.

  • This oil provides excellent load-carrying capacity and corrosion protection for both steel and bronze components, even in the presence of water and solid contamination — making it suitable for mixed-metal gearboxes.

  • Shell Omala S2 G 460 has excellent water separation properties, allowing excess water to be drained easily from lubrication systems. While it is formulated to protect against ferrous corrosion and surface fatigue associated with water ingress, water contamination should still be avoided or removed as quickly as possible after it occurs.

  • This oil is formulated to resist thermal and chemical breakdown and can support extended oil life with bulk oil temperatures of up to 100°C in certain applications, while also resisting sludge formation throughout the maintenance interval.

  • Shell Omala S2 G 460 is not recommended for automotive hypoid gears — the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used for those applications. For highly-loaded worm drives, Shell Omala series oils are the recommended choice.

  • Shell Omala S2 G 460 meets several key industrial gear oil standards, including AGMA EP 9005 - EO2, ISO 12925-1 Type CKD, DIN 51517 Part 3 (CLP), Textron Power Transmissions (David Brown) 3E, US Steel 224, and MAG Specification P-76. For a full listing of equipment approvals, Shell recommends consulting the local Shell Technical Helpdesk or the OEM Approvals website.
