Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40
Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40 is a premium synthetic technology heavy-duty diesel engine oil developed to deliver strong engine protection, improved efficiency and dependable performance in modern commercial vehicle engines. Designed for use in a wide range of heavy-duty diesel engines, the lubricant combines high-quality base oils with advanced additive technology to provide improved resistance to oil breakdown, excellent wear protection and reliable operation under demanding driving conditions.
One of the key benefits of Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40 is its ability to help improve fuel efficiency. The advanced formulation provides lower internal friction compared with many conventional 15W-40 engine oils, allowing engines to operate more efficiently. This reduction in friction can deliver fuel economy improvements of up to 1%, depending on engine design, operating conditions and maintenance practices. Improved efficiency helps reduce operating costs for fleets while maintaining reliable engine protection.
Shell Rimula R5 E also offers enhanced resistance to oil breakdown, helping maintain lubricant performance over extended operating periods. The advanced additive system provides strong resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation, allowing the oil to remain stable even when engines operate under high temperatures and heavy loads. Compared with typical industry-standard CH-4 and ACEA E3 oils, Shell Rimula R5 E can deliver up to 30% greater resistance to oil breakdown, helping maintain engine cleanliness and ensuring reliable lubrication over longer service intervals.
Another important advantage of Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40 is its excellent low-temperature performance. The synthetic technology formulation allows the oil to flow more easily during cold starts, helping ensure faster oil circulation and improved lubrication during the critical start-up period. Compared with traditional 15W-40 oils, the product can deliver up to 48% faster starts in extremely low temperatures. This improved cold-start performance helps reduce engine wear, improves reliability in cold climates and supports consistent engine operation throughout the year.
Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40 is suitable for a wide range of heavy-duty diesel engines used in trucks, buses and commercial vehicles operating in both on-road and off-road applications. It is compatible with many engines from leading manufacturers and meets a broad range of industry and OEM specifications. These include API CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4 and CF, as well as ACEA E7, E5 and E3 and Global DHD-1. The oil also meets the requirements of major engine manufacturers including Cummins CES 20078, 20077, 20076, 20072 and 20071, Mack EO-M and EO-M+, MAN M3275-1, MB-Approval 228.3, Renault Trucks RLD-2 and Volvo VDS-3 and VDS-2.
With its combination of improved fuel economy, enhanced durability and reliable cold-start performance, Shell Rimula R5 E 10W-40 provides dependable engine protection and efficient operation for modern heavy-duty diesel engines operating in demanding environments.
