Shell Spirax S3 TLV

Application:

Shell Spirax S3 TLV is a specially friction-modified universal tractor transmission oil (UTTO) formulated for use in agricultural tractors and off-road machinery. It is designed for combined use in transmission, differential, hydraulic, and oil-immersed brake systems as well as power take-off (PTO) mechanisms. Formerly known as Shell Donax TD Low Viscosity, this SAE 5W-20 oil is ideal for applications requiring smooth brake performance and reliable multi-functional lubrication.

Performance Features & Benefits:

• Quiet, Smooth Brake Operation: Friction-modified additives reduce noise and enhance braking smoothness, especially in wet brake systems with sintered bronze or graphitic linings.
• Reliable Multi-Function Lubrication: Ensures dependable performance in transmissions, differentials, hydraulics, and PTO units.
• Wide Equipment Compatibility: Suitable for use in tractors and mobile equipment using a common fluid system.
• Temperature Resilience: Performs well across a broad range of operating temperatures including cold starts.
• High-Quality Additive System: Utilizes proven additives widely used in agricultural equipment for robustness and longevity.

Main Application Areas:

• Agricultural tractors and implements with combined transmission and hydraulic systems
• Off-road machinery requiring low-viscosity UTTO fluids
• Mobile equipment with Sundstrand hydrostatic transmissions
• Caterpillar powershift transmissions requiring TO-2 fluid
• Mobile and industrial hydraulic systems working across wide temperature ranges
