Shell Gadus S2 V100 3
Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 is a high-performance multipurpose grease designed to provide reliable protection and consistent lubrication performance across a wide range of industrial applications. It is formulated using a lithium hydroxystearate soap thickener combined with a mineral base oil and enhanced with anti-oxidant, anti-wear and anti-rust additives. This formulation delivers dependable performance where a slightly firmer grease consistency is required.
Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 offers reliable high-temperature performance, providing effective lubrication at operating temperatures of up to +130°C. This capability helps extend bearing life in applications exposed to elevated temperatures, reducing re-greasing frequency and supporting lower maintenance requirements. The grease also demonstrates good oxidation resistance, helping to minimise the formation of deposits that can negatively impact bearing performance during prolonged high-temperature operation.
The product exhibits excellent mechanical stability and is designed to remain stable under vibration and repeated shock loading. This stability helps prevent grease leakage, even in heavily loaded or vibrating bearings, ensuring consistent lubrication and protection over extended service periods. These characteristics make Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 well suited to industrial environments where equipment reliability and uptime are critical.
Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 also provides good corrosion resistance, helping to protect lubricated components in hostile or wet environments. The grease maintains effective protection in the presence of moisture and offers improved performance compared to conventional lithium greases where water ingress may occur. In addition, it has a long storage life and does not significantly change in consistency during prolonged storage, supporting efficient stock management.
This grease is suitable for use in rolling element and plain bearings, sealed-for-life bearings, water pump bearings and a wide range of general industrial applications. It is particularly recommended for the lubrication of electric motor bearings, where its medium-to-hard consistency (NLGI 3) provides improved retention and stability. Shell Gadus S2 V100 3 can be used across a broad range of operating conditions and offers clear advantages at higher temperatures or in the presence of water.
