Manufacturer's description
Shell Omala S2 GX are premium-quality extreme-pressure (EP) oils intended for lubricating industrial gears subjected to arduous operating conditions. Their high load carrying capacity, combined with their anti-friction characteristics, gives the oil superior performance in enclosed gear operation.
Applications
- Enclosed industrial gearsShell Omala S2 GX technology provides an effective extreme-pressure (EP) formulation designed specifically for enclosed industrial gearboxes using steel spur, helical or planetary gears, including highly loaded systems with splash or forced-circulation lubrication. Shell Omala S2 GX oils are also suitable for lubricating other applications, including bearings and other steel-on-steel components with splash or forced-circulation systems.
- Shell offers a wide range of products for other gear applications that have their own specific requirements. Shell Omala S4 GXV is recommended for transmission systems where a synthetic lubricant is specified, when the longest service life is required, or when operating in environments with wide temperature variations.
- Shell Omala S5 Wind 320 is recommended for wind turbine main gearboxes.
- Shell Omala S4 WE, Shell Morlina S4 B and Shell Omala S1 W are recommended for worm gears
- For automotive gears, an appropriate Shell Spirax oil should be used
- For systems with slideways or other applications using a filtration unit finer than 10 microns, please consult your local Shell technical specialist and product application specialist before using Shell Omala S2 GX.
- compatible with prevalent paint finishes. For systems with slideways or other applications using a filtration unit finer than 10 microns, please consult your local Shell technical specialist and product application specialist before using Shell Omala S2 GX.

Performance & benefits
- Long oil life through oxidation stability and resistance to thermal stress, reducing total cost of ownership, even at bulk oil temperatures up to 100°C.
- Excellent load-carrying capacity and micropitting resistance, providing long component life.
- Gear-system efficiency is maintained through enhanced water shedding, extra corrosion protection and better foam control, even in the presence of seawater or solids contamination.
- Excellent shear stability, maintaining viscosity throughout the service interval, and compatibility with common seals, engineering adhesives and paint finishes.
Standards & approvals
ISO 12925-1 CKD
Industrial gear lubricant CKD — ISO 12925
Class CKD of ISO 12925-1: a gear oil with the same additive package as CKC but greater thermal stability, for gear units running hot.
ISO 12925-1 CKC
Industrial gear lubricant - CKC — ISO 12925
The international standard for enclosed gear drive lubricants; class CKC is the mineral oil with antioxidant, anticorrosion and antiwear additives, for moderate duty.
DIN 51517-3 CLP
Industrial gear oil CLP — DIN 51517, part 3
Part 3 of the German lubricating oil standard: class CLP, gear oils with extreme-pressure additives. It requires an FZG pass plus corrosion and ageing protection.
