Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

Fully synthetic engine oil – Shell's most advanced formulation for high-performance engines. Intended to meet the particular requirements of high-performance engines, including the API SN or ACEA A3/B4 requirements.

Applications

• Extreme-performance engines and racing conditions can cause excessive wear of bearings and other engine components. Shell Helix Ultra Racing has been formulated with a high viscosity to ensure exceptional bearing protection under extreme competition conditions compared with a lower-viscosity oil.
• Shell Helix Ultra Racing is dedicated to modified and racing engines running on gasoline, diesel and gas, and can also be used with biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol blends.

Performance & benefits

• Shell's latest active cleansing technologyHelps protect high-performance engines and control deposits.
• Superior wear and corrosion protectionHelps extend engine life by protecting surfaces from wear and by neutralising combustion acids.
• Unsurpassed sludge protectionNo other motor oil keeps the engine closer to factory-clean standards.
• Used by FerrariDeveloped in association with Ferrari for racing and modified engines
• Superior resistance to oil degradationHelps maintain protection in high-temperature engines.
• Formulated for low evaporationReduced evaporation from the piston surface at high temperature
• Multi-fuel capabilityCan be used for gasoline, diesel and gas engines, and is also suitable for biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol blends. 1 Based on Sequence VG sludge test results using 0W-40. Compared with the API SN specification and based on Sequence IVA and Sequence VIII engine tests carried out at independent laboratories. Compared with the API SN specification and based on Sequence III oxidation and deposit tests carried out at independent laboratories.
