Mobil SHC 500 Series

Supreme-performance synthetic hydraulic oils

Get superior protection across a wide temperature range.

Advanced-technology Mobil SHC 500 Series high-Viscosity Index (VI) hydraulic oils are designed

to provide excellent wear protection for high-pressure vane, piston, and gear pumps in a wide

range of temperatures across all industry segments. Exhibiting outstanding oxidation and shear

stability, excellent rust and corrosion protection, demulsibility, and keep-clean performance,

Mobil SHC 500 Series helps extend the service life of machine components.

Productivity that’s proven: Lasts up to 3x longer than competitive mineral oils.

The proprietary combination of high-VI synthetic basestocks and performance additives in

Mobil SHC 500 Series helps provide outstanding low- and high-temperature performance

and an extra margin of equipment protection beyond the capabilities of comparable mineral

oil–based products — improving productivity by reducing maintenance shutdowns and total cost of ownership.

Energy efficiency built in.

With Mobil SHC 500 Series’ dramatically increased hydraulic efficiency and excellent system cleanliness and durability, you can

decrease machine maintenance, extend oil drain intervals, and potentially reduce hydraulic system energy consumption by

up to 6.2 percent when compared with standard mineral hydraulic oils. The increased hydraulic efficiency gained from using

Mobil SHC 500 can also result in an overall reduction in CO2 emissions, helping your operation better meet environmental goals.

Benefit from excellent oxidation and greater shear stability.

Mobil SHC 500 Series’ outstanding thermal stability and oxidation resistance allows long oil drains and filter change intervals while

helping keep hydraulic systems and components free from deposits and sludge for trouble-free operation. And its superior shear stability

as compared with conventional high-VI mineral hydraulic oils helps to prevent permanent viscosity loss and therefore stays in grade.
