Shell Gadinia S3 40

Main Applications

• Highly rated, medium speed, main propulsion & auxiliary trunk-piston stationary & marine diesel engines.
• Shell Gadinia S3 40 will also perform satisfactorily in smaller high-speed engines typically used in fishing fleets which operate under arduous conditions and have small sump sizes.
• Turbochargers, oil filled stern tubes and variable pitch propellers.
• Deck machinery & other marine applications requiring SAE 40 viscosity oils.

Performance, Features & Benefits

• Extended oil life
  Shell Gadinia S3 40 offers excellent resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation so it can offer longer oil life, especially in high stress engines under severe operating conditions.
• Engine protection
  Shell Gadinia S3 40 can help to extend engine life by reducing deposit formation in the piston ring belt and cylinder liners reducing the risk of ring sticking and breakage.
