Manufacturer's description

High-performance transmission oil for off-road equipment and hydraulic oil for many applications. Shell Spirax S4 CX 30 is formulated to give operators trouble-free equipment operation and maximum reliability throughout its service life. Spirax S4 CX meets the oil requirements for use in the modern transmissions, final drives, oil-immersed brakes and hydraulic systems fitted to heavy off-road vehicles.

Applications

• Shell Spirax S4 CX 30 is recommended for use in heavy off-road equipment produced by the world's leading manufacturers, including Caterpillar, Komatsu and Komatsu-Dresser, and in transmissions produced by Eaton, Eaton Fuller, ZF, Dana and Rockwell, in:

Performance & benefits

• Frictional performance and material compatibilityConsistent, highly reliable performance when used with the metallic and non-metallic materials found in modern systems. Minimal clutch slip, smooth and quiet brake operation, and trouble-free transmission operation.
• Anti-wear protectionThe shear stability of the SAE 30 viscosity grade, which contains no viscosity index improvers in its formulation, provides the best protection for heavily loaded components.
• Low-temperature characteristicsThe product has been formulated to meet low-temperature viscosity and fluidity requirements, thereby providing superior component protection both at start-up and during operation at low temperatures.
• Optimum mechanical performance and long service lifeThe product provides broad protection for critical components, such as the bronze friction discs in power transmissions and the gears in final drives and differential units.
• Vickers 35V25 test (hydraulic pump)The product achieved excellent performance in this test.
• Oxidation stabilityContains inhibitors that control oxidation and deposit formation. Protects both ferrous and non-ferrous metals against corrosion. Suppresses foam formation, with improved low-temperature flow properties that increase efficiency.
• Suitable for applications requiring Allison C-4 type fluids
• Shell Spirax S4 CX 30 is suitable for use in many power shift or manual transmissions, wet brake systems and some off-road hydraulic systems, including those from Komatsu
