Shell Turbo Oils T are premium quality lubricating oils designed to provide excellent lubrication of precision turbines and many other industrial applications. These oils are made from severely hydroprocessed (API Group II) base oils, which have been carefully selected to provide satisfactory viscosity/temperature characteristics, low foaming tendencies and good water separation properties. In addition, they contain proven additives to protect equipment against rusting and to resist oxidation for long service life.

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 for precision turbines and a broad range of industrial applications, including general purpose plant lubrication, non-anti-wear hydraulic and circulating oil systems, and non-EP gear applications. It is not formulated with anti-wear or extreme-pressure additives, so it should only be used in systems that do not require those additive types.

  • The severely hydroprocessed API Group II base oils used in Shell Turbo T 68 deliver improved viscosity/temperature characteristics, low foaming tendencies, and good water separation properties β€” all critical for consistent performance in turbine and circulating systems where contamination control and fluid stability matter.

  • Shell Turbo T 68 meets ANSI/AGMA 9005-D94 requirements for R&O (rust and oxidation inhibited) oils, and is STLE recommended under classification ASLE 64-3 with identifying number H-315 for hydraulic fluid and general purpose lubricants.

  • The number in the product name corresponds to the ISO viscosity grade β€” T 68 is thicker than T 46 and T 32. As a reference, T 32 carries STLE identifying number H-150, T 46 carries H-215, and T 68 carries H-315. The correct grade depends on your equipment manufacturer's viscosity specification, so consult your equipment manual or OEM guidelines to confirm which grade is required.

  • Shell Turbo T 68 contains proven additives that protect equipment against rusting and resist oxidation for long service life. It is also non-corrosive to metals and provides fast water separation along with good de-aeration properties to help maintain system cleanliness.

  • Yes, it is suitable for non-anti-wear hydraulic and circulating oil systems. Because it does not contain anti-wear additives, it should only be used in hydraulic systems where the OEM does not specify an AW-grade fluid β€” verify your system requirements before use.

Key Features

  • Formulated with severely hydroprocessed API Group II base oils, providing satisfactory viscosity/temperature characteristics and low foaming tendencies for reliable turbine and industrial lubrication.

  • Superior oxidation stability helps extend oil service life, reducing the frequency of oil changes and maintenance in precision turbine and circulating systems.

  • Fast water separation and good de-aeration properties keep lubrication systems clean and operating efficiently.

  • Contains proven anti-rust and oxidation-inhibiting additives to protect equipment from corrosion and degradation over long service intervals.

  • Meets ANSI/AGMA 9005-D94 requirements for R&O oils and is STLE recommended for hydraulic fluid and general purpose lubricant applications (ASLE 64-3, Identifying No. H-315).
