Shell Turbo T 68 features high quality hydroprocessed (API Group II) base oils and a combination of zinc-free additives to protect critical turbine components and promote system efficiency. T 68 is a high-quality gas and steam turbine oil designed to resist oxidation and help prevent deposit and sludge formations, minimizing the need for maintenance. In addition, Shell Turbo T 68 features anti-foam additives and has fast air release properties to reduce the possibility of pump cavitation and gear wear.

Superior oxidation stability. Non-corrosively to metals. Fast separation of water and good de-aeration properties.

General Applications

  • a wide range of lubrication applications
  • general purpose plant lubrication
  • non-anti-wear hydraulic and circulating oil systems
  • non-EP gear oils

Shell Turbo Oils T meet the American Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Gear Manufactures Association (AGMA) 9005-D94 requirements for R&O oils. Standards for machine tool lubrication established by the STLE include a classification for Hydraulic Fluid and General Purpose Lubricants.Shell Turbo Oils T for Hydraulic Fluid and General Purpose Lubricants

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • Shell Turbo T 68 is designed primarily for gas and steam turbines. It is also suitable for a wide range of general purpose plant lubrication, non-anti-wear hydraulic and circulating oil systems, and non-EP gear oil applications.

  • API Group II base oils are produced through hydroprocessing, a refining method that removes more impurities than conventional mineral oil processing. This results in higher purity base oils that contribute directly to the superior oxidation stability of Shell Turbo T 68, helping prevent the deposit and sludge formations that can lead to turbine maintenance issues.

  • The zinc-free formulation means the oil does not rely on zinc-based anti-wear chemistry, which can be corrosive to certain metals found in turbine systems. Shell Turbo T 68 is confirmed to be non-corrosive to metals, making it compatible with the sensitive alloys and components common in gas and steam turbine equipment.

  • The oil includes dedicated anti-foam additives and is engineered to release entrained air quickly. These fast air release properties reduce the presence of air bubbles in the oil circuit, which directly lowers the risk of pump cavitation and associated gear wear.

  • Shell Turbo T 68 meets the ANSI/AGMA 9005-D94 requirements for R&O oils. It also carries the STLE classification ASLE 64-3 / Identifying No. H-315, covering its use as a hydraulic fluid and general purpose lubricant.

  • Shell Turbo T 68 is formulated with fast water separation (demulsibility) and good de-aeration properties, allowing it to shed water quickly and prevent water-in-oil emulsions that could degrade lubrication performance or promote corrosion inside turbine and hydraulic systems.
