Shell Rimula Mineral Oils
Mineral oil is the fraction of naturally occurring crude oil with the right properties for lubricating engines. Combined with an optimised additive technology Shell Rimula mineral oil products provide robust engine oils for use in a range of vehicles.
Shell Rimula mineral oils are formulated with Adaptive Additive Technology that adapts physically and chemically to your engine, providing Dynamic Protection to meet the needs of all types of heavy-duty engine technology equipment and the wide range of engine operating requirements. They are designed to help safeguard engines against wear and acid corrosion, which can be harmful to engine life, thus lowering maintenance costs and increasing vehicle reliability.
Designed to Provide Triple Protection
Shell Rimula (R4 X) is formulated with Shell’s innovative Dynamic Protection technology, which features an advanced additive system that adapts to your engine’s specific requirements. This helps to provide protection in three key areas:
- Acid and Corrosion Control: It protect against corrosion by controlling the acids formed as the fuel burns.
- Wear Control: It maintains strongly protective oil films to keep critical engine components working.
- Deposit Control: It resists high-temperature oxidation, thereby keeping engines clean from deposits.
Shell Rimula R4X provides:
- Up to 50% more cleanliness control, i.e., less engine sludge, in different parts of the engine has been demonstrated in key engine tests for meeting US and European specifications.
- Up to 50% better acid corrosion protection Shell Rimula R4 X is proven to give up to 50% more protection in engine and laboratory tests and field trials under real-world truck driving conditions.
- Up to 30% better wear protection In the Mack T-10 engine test, Shell Rimula R4 X demonstrated up to 30% better wear protection of engine piston rings and cylinder liners than required to meet the API CI-4 specification.
