Complete documentation

Manufacturer's description

High performance, GL-5 axle oil for limited slip differentials. Shell Spirax S3 ALS 80W-90 oil is blended for use in a wide variety of automotive axle units with limited slip differentials including many ZF units.

Applications

  • Automotive drivelinesSuitable for heavy duty vehicles, including construction machines or buses, and passenger cars which are fitted with limited slip differentials. May be used in other moderate to heavily loaded gear sets that will allow use of a friction modified, hypoid gear oil. Specifically suitable for ZF units including Liebherr where a limited slip fluid is required.

Performance & benefits

  • Comprehensive componentsSpecially selected additives impart good anti-wear, anti-rust characteristics, oxidation and thermal stability as well as the required coefficient of friction to meet requirements of limited slip differentials.
  • OEM approved performanceApproved by ZF for use in differential and axle units.
  • Increased protectionImproved protection with MIL-L-2105D performance capability compared to Shell Spirax S2 ALS 80W-90.
  • High quality base oilsMaintains low temperature flow in the designed temperature range, resists oxidation and maintains oil film between gears.
