Shell Gadus S2 V100 3
Formerly known as Alvania RL3
Product Description:
Gadus Greases are smooth-textured, amber colored lithium
soap-thickened greases. These greases are also inhibited with additives that
assure long service life and provide excellent lubrication and corrosion
protection. Gadus Greases are excellent as general plant and electric motor
bearing lubricants. Alvania Greases RL 1 and 2 are readily pumpable in pressure
grease dispensing systems. Recognizing the trend toward the use of low-noise
greases in general plant and electric motor bearing applications, Alvania
Greases RL are formulated with non-crystalline additives to eliminate the hard
particles that can lead to noise. The greases are tested to meet low-noise
bearing requirements.
Applications:
• small and large bearings used in electric motors in consumer
applications where low noise properties are desired
• factory-fill where the bearing manufacturer requires a low noise grease
Proper
grease selection depends upon many factors, including bearing size, speed,
temperature, load and method of application (hand gun, centralized systems). The
bearing lubrication guide shown below will assist in this selection.

*The bearing speed factor is the bearing bore measured in millimeters
multiplied by the bearing shaft speed measured in revolutions per minute. For
the purpose of converting millimeters to inches, one inch equals 25.4
millimeters.
