Shell Turbo T 46
High Quality Industrial Steam & Gas Turbine Oils
Shell Turbo Oils T have long been regarded as the industry standard turbine oil. Building on this reputation, Shell
Turbo Oils T have been developed to offer improved performance capable of meeting the demands of the most modern
steam turbine systems and light duty gas turbines, which require no enhanced anti-wear performance for the gearbox.
Shell Turbo Oils T are formulated from high quality hydrotreated base oils and a combination of zinc-free additives
that provide excellent oxidative stability, protection against rust & corrosion, low foaming and excellent demulsibility.
Performance, Features & Benefits Main Applications
Strong Control of Oxidation Shell Turbo Oils T are available in ISO grades 32, 46, 68 &
The use of inherently oxidatively stable base oils together with 100 suited for application in the following areas:
an effective inhibitor package provides high resistance to Industrial steam turbines & light duty gas turbines which require
oxidative degradation. The result is extended oil life, no enhanced anti-wear performance for the gearbox
