Application:
Shell Spirax S4 TX is a high-performance SAE 10W-40 Super Tractor Oil Universal (STOU), engineered for comprehensive lubrication across engine, transmission, and hydraulic systems in modern agricultural machinery. It is based on Shell’s XHVI base oil technology and fortified with a shear-stable advanced additive package, delivering consistent protection, cleanliness, and efficiency across a wide range of field conditions and equipment demands.
Performance Features & Benefits:
- Multi-Purpose Convenience: One oil for engines, transmissions, hydraulics, and oil-immersed brakes — simplifies inventory and servicing on the farm.
- Superior Mechanical Protection: Protects all components from wear, metal fatigue, and early breakdown, supporting extended equipment life.
- Engine Cleanliness: Uses Shell XHVI base oil, which reduces the need for polymers, promoting cleaner engine operation and longer service life.
- Cold Weather Versatility: Offers better low-temperature performance than 15W-30 or 20W-30, ensuring easy start-up and reliable hydraulic response in winter.
- Fuel Efficiency: Low-viscosity formula contributes to lower fuel consumption without increasing wear or oil use.
- Low Volatility: Minimizes oil evaporation and reduces top-up requirements, meeting modern engine oil volatility standards.
- Oxidation & Corrosion Resistance: Keeps systems clean and protected under thermal stress, improving uptime and reducing maintenance.
