Product Description

Shell Gadus S2 OG 80 is a premium quality, lead-free, and solvent-free extreme pressure (EP) lubricant specifically designed for the lubrication and protection of open gears and wire ropes. Whether you’re dealing with grinding mills, kilns, shovels, draglines, ship loaders, stackers, or excavators, Shell Gadus S2 OG 80 ensures reliable wear protection and superior performance even under the most demanding conditions.

Performance of Shell Gadus S2 OG 80

• Exceptional Physical and Mechanical Stability: Shell Gadus S2 OG 80 retains its natural protective properties over its long working life. This stability ensures consistent performance, reducing maintenance hassles and downtime.
• Excellent Anti-Wear Performance: At working temperatures, speeds, and pressures, Shell Gadus S2 OG 80 forms a protective cushion between large gears (such as girth and bull gears) and pinion teeth. The result? Reduced gear surface pitting and improved tooth contact zone temperatures.
• Superb Load Carrying Capacity: Thanks to the inclusion of molybdenum disulfide and other solid lubricants, this grease can handle heavy loads without compromising performance. Say goodbye to “stick-slip” conditions!

• Water Repellent: Shell Gadus S2 OG 80 effectively resists water “wash-off” by immersion or spray, ensuring consistent lubrication even in wet environments.
• Corrosion Protection: In hostile conditions like saltwater environments, this grease protects metal surfaces from corrosion. It also repels dirt and dust.
