Mobil SHC™ 600 Series  

Mobil Industrial, United States
Exceptional Performance Gear and Bearing Oils

Product Description
Mobil SHC™ 600 Series lubricants are exceptional performance gear and bearing oils designed to provide outstanding service in terms of
equipment protection, oil life and problem-free operation helping to enable increased customer productivity. These scientifically engineered oils
are formulated using the latest proprietary and patent pending Mobil SHC technology to provide outstanding and balanced performance in
demanding applications at high and low temperatures. Mobil SHC 600 products feature excellent low temperature properties, as well as
improved air release performance in the lower viscosity grades. These products are resistant to mechanical shear, even in heavily loaded gear and
high shear bearing applications, so that there is virtually no loss of viscosity.

Mobil SHC 600 Series products have low traction coefficients relative to mineral oils which derive from the molecular structure of the base stocks
used. This results in low fluid friction in the load zone of non-conforming surfaces such as gears and rolling contact bearings. Low fluid friction
produces lower operating temperatures and improved gear efficiency, which translates into reduced power consumption. Mobil SHC 600 Series
products have demonstrated up to 3.6% improvement in energy efficiency in controlled laboratory testing(*). Mobil SHC 600 Series formulation
also provides excellent resistance to oxidation and deposit formation at elevated temperatures, as well as exceptional resistance to rusting and
corrosion, antiwear, demulsibility, foam control and air release properties, and multi-metal compatibility. Mobil SHC 600 Series oils maintain good
compatibility with seals and other materials used in equipment normally lubricated with mineral oils.

Mobil SHC 600 Series lubricants are suitable for use in a wide range of equipment, not only as high temperature problem solvers, but also
because of the other benefits they offer.

(*) Energy efficiency relates solely to the performance of Mobil SHC 600 when compared to conventional (mineral) reference oils of the same
viscosity grade in circulating and gear applications. The technology used allows up to 3.6% efficiency compared to the reference when tested in
a worm gearbox under controlled conditions. Efficiency improvements will vary based on operating conditions and application.
 

Features and Benefits

The Mobil SHC brand of lubricants are recognized and appreciated around the world for their innovation and outstanding performance. These
synthetic products, molecularly designed and pioneered by our research scientists, embody the continuing commitment to using advanced
technology to provide outstanding lubricant products. The development of Mobil SHC 600 Series was preceded by close contacts between our
scientists and application specialists with key Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to ensure that the products provide exceptional
performance in the continually evolving industrial equipment designs.

Our work with key equipment builders has helped confirm the results from our own laboratory and rig tests showing the exceptional
performance of Mobil SHC 600 Series lubricants. Not least among the benefits, shown in work with OEMs, is the potential for energy efficiency
improvements up to 3.6% relative to mineral oils (*). These benefits are particularly evident in equipment with a high level of mechanical losses,
such as high ratio worm gears.

To develop the latest Mobil SHC technology for Mobil SHC 600 Series oils, our product formulation scientists chose select base oils because of
their exceptional thermal/oxidative resistance potential and combined them with a balanced additive system, which complements the inherent
benefits of the base oils to provide excellent oil life, deposit control and resistance to thermal/oxidative and chemical degradation. This
formulation approach provides low temperature fluidity characteristics exceeding that of many conventional mineral products and is a key
benefit for remote, low ambient temperature applications. Mobil SHC 600 Series oils offer the following features and potential benefits:

Features Advantages and Potential Benefits

High Viscosity Index and Maintains viscosity and film thickness at high temperatures
absence of wax Helps enable exceptional low temperature performance, including start-up

Low traction coefficient Helps reduce friction and increase efficiency in sliding mechanisms such as gearing, with potential for
reduced power consumption and lower steady-state operating temperatures.
Helps minimize the effects of micro slip in rolling contact bearings to potentially extend rolling-element life

High load carrying capability Helps protects equipment and extends life; helps minimize unexpected downtime and extends service
periods

Balanced additive combination Provides excellent performance in terms of rust and corrosion prevention, water separability, foam control
and air release performance enabling problem-free operation in a wide range of industrial applications,
and reduced operating costs

Applications
While Mobil SHC 600 Series are generally compatible with mineral oil based products, admixture may detract from their performance.
Consequently it is recommended that before changing a system to one of Mobil SHC 600 Series products, it should be thoroughly cleaned out
and flushed to achieve the maximum performance benefits. Mobil SHC 600 Series oils are compatible with most NBR, FKM and most other
elastomeric seal materials that are used with mineral oils. There is the potential for substantial variations in the elastomers. For best results,
consult your equipment supplier, seal manufacturer, or your local company representative to verify compatibility.

Mobil SHC 600 Series lubricants are recommended for use in a wide variety of gear and bearing applications where high or low temperatures
are encountered or where operating temperatures or bulk oil temperatures are such that conventional lubricants give unsatisfactory life, or where
improved efficiency is desired. They are particularly effective in applications where the maintenance costs of component replacement, system
cleaning and lubricant changes are high. Specific applications require selection of the appropriate viscosity grade and include:
Filled for life gearboxes, especially high ratio/ low-efficiency worm gears
Remotely located gearboxes, where oil change-out is difficult
Low temperature applications, such as ski lifts where seasonal oil changes can be avoided
Mixer roll bearings and roll neck bearings where high temperatures are encountered
Plastic calenders
Severe centrifuge applications, including marine centrifuges
Railroad A/C Traction Drives
Mobil SHC 626, 627, 629 and 630 are suitable for Oil Flooded Rotary Screw Compressors compressing natural gas, field gas gathering,
CO2 and other process gasses used in the natural gas industry
Mobil SHC 629, 630, 632, 634, 636, and 639 are approved by Siemens AG for use in Flender gearboxes
