Product Description

Shell Gadus S5 T460 1.5 is an ultra-performance, fully synthetic, extreme pressure (EP) grease designed for heavily loaded, slow-to-medium speed bearings operating in high-temperature, high-vibration, and severe-moisture industrial conditions. It features a high-viscosity synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oil and a non-soap diurea (polyurea) thickener system, delivering ultimate mechanical stability and resistance to oxidisation. The defining performance trait of Shell Gadus S5 T460 1.5 is its intermediate 1.5 NLGI consistency paired with an exceptionally heavy 460 cSt synthetic base oil. Traditional lithium complex greases can break down structurally, bleed excessively, or harden into solid residues when exposed to constant thermal stresses, leading to premature bearing failure. The advanced diurea thickener in this grease has superb mechanical shear stability, maintaining its soft structure without melting or running out of the bearing under continuous heat. Meanwhile, the heavy PAO synthetic base oil maintains a robust, friction-reducing fluid film to prevent surface scuffing and micro-pitting under massive load stresses, while remaining remarkably fluid at temperatures down to -40°C for secure cold-weather startups. The 18 kg plastic pail (bucket) is a highly practical and transportable packaging option for maintenance and service crews working across heavy industrial environments. Highly favored by technicians servicing hard-to-reach wind turbine nacelles, overhead conveyor drives, or drying ovens, this size can be easily carried up ladders and across platforms without mechanical hoist rigging. The heavy-duty, resealable lid seals out aggressive environmental contaminants such as plant floor dust, water spray, and steam, ensuring this high-purity synthetic grease remains sterile and highly effective.
