Shell Helix motor oil

[Susan Anthony]

Shell Helix Motor Oils have been designed by Shell technologists to our own specifications, and significantly exceed industry standards. They are tested under the extreme conditions of the Ferrari F 1 racing team. In fact, every drop of oil that goes into Ferrari's F 1 engin'es is Shell Helix Ultra. So you can enjoy the same performance from your lubricant that the Ferrari team relies on. Shell Helix Motor Oils minimise contact between parts-in-motion, protecting them from mechanical wear, hence reducing the loss of,energy caused by friction. They also prevent the bUild-up of sludge deposits that can interfere with the normal function of mechanical elements.

Active Cleansing Agents
Shell Helix contains active c1earising agents, which are special additives designed to clean the engine as efficiently as possible.

The Importance of Cleansing:
A leading lubricant manufacturer once said - 'engine sludge is difficult, if not impossible to remove'.

However, in independent tests Shell Helix Ultra removed 5 times as much sludge as compared to normal API SL/CF mineral motor oil.



Shear Stability
Extremes of temperatures can tear apart some motor oils. Shell Helix Ultra is designed for outstanding shear stability.

It undergoes only half the shearing as compared to other leading synthetic motor oils. Hence, it can stand up to extreme conditions in a high performance engine.

Oxidation Stability
Oils can oxidise to form sludge, unwanted thickening and corrosive acids. It can mean a less durable motor oil and a less responsive engine Shell Helix is designed for oxidation stability. It has 50% more oxidation stability than other leading competitor brands. As a result, it can keep on protecting engines for a longer period of time.

The benefits of a clean engine to your customer:
A clean engine in good condition will provide a smoother, quieter and more responsive drive.
