Advanced Multipurpose Grease with Solids
Shell Gadus S5 U100KD is an all season full synthetic grease. The superior high temperature capability of Shell
Gadus S5 U100KD grease ensures dependable lubrication in a wide range of operating temperatures from a
maximum of about 170 °C down to -45 °C.
APPLICATIONS
Shell Gadus S5 U100KD grease has been designed for optimum year round protection. Its synthetic formulation
ensures performance in extreme temperatures in severe applications where No Compromise is acceptable
PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
Shell Gadus S5 U100KD grease provides the following additional benefits and features:
• Superior High Temperature Performance and Oxidation Resistance - extremely stable at high temperatures.
It won't melt like conventional soap based greases and also exhibits superior resistance to oxidation ... this
helps ensure long grease and equipment life.
• Excellent Load Carrying Ability - formulated with non-leaded extreme pressure additives and moly
disulphide to provide excellent load carrying properties – which minimize your equipment wear.
• Excellent Low Temperature Performance – outstanding low temperature mobility and dispensability –
reducing inventory changes while ensuring year round protection.
• Outstanding resistance to water washout. It leaves a tenacious film which can often result in extended
lubrication intervals and reduced operating costs.
