Application:

Shell Omala S3 GP 220 is a high-performance industrial gear oil formulated for specialized use in severely loaded and shock-loaded gearboxes found in industries such as steel, cement, mining, and quarrying. It provides enhanced protection for both standard and worn gear systems. Former product names include Shell Gear Oil SI and Shell Omala SW.

Performance Features & Benefits:

  • Long Oil Life: Resists thermal and oxidative degradation, helping to prevent sludge formation and maintain performance up to 100 °C.
  • Superior Wear & Corrosion Protection: High EP additive levels provide optimal protection in the most demanding conditions, including systems with water and solid contaminants.
  • Maintains System Efficiency: Excellent water separation extends gear life by preserving oil film integrity.

Main Application Areas:

  • Highly loaded enclosed industrial gear systems with shock loads
  • Older, worn, or misaligned gear systems requiring enhanced protection
  • Bearings and other components in splash or circulating systems
  • Not suitable for automotive hypoid gears—use Shell Spirax instead

Specifications & Approvals:

  • Textron Power Transmission (David Brown) S1.53.101E (except ISO 680 and 1500)
  • ISO 12925-1 CKD (except ISO 680 and 1500)
  • ANSI/AGMA 9005-E02 (EP)
  • Van de Wiele approval

Environmental & Safety Information:
