Shell Rimula – Energised Protection

The Shell Rimula family of heavy duty engine oils delivers the right solution for your truck. From cost effective products such as Shell Rimula R6 LM through to products that deliver a greater degree of engine protection such as Shell Rimula R3X there’s a solution to meet your vehicle’s needs.

Shell Rimula R6 LM - Heavy Duty Synthetic Diesel Engine Oil

Shell Rimula R4 - Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil

Shell Rimula R3 X - Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil

Our oils are ready for action when you need them to be: Shell Rimula technology lets you choose the level of protection you need in three critical areas — the areas that threaten engines most.

1. Acid control

Acids formed when diesel fuel is burned can escape into your oil, where they corrode parts of your engine. Shell Rimula oils contain powerful neutralising agents that protect the engine from attack.

2. Deposit control

Build-up of excessive piston deposits can result in ring sticking and abrasion, and cylinder wear. This shortens engine life and increases oil consumption. Shell Rimula Energised Protection oils contain active molecules that block or carry away particles that can cause deposits.

3. Wear control

Keeping moving metal surfaces separate is a vital function of an oil. Failure can result in “hot spots” and wear. Shell Rimula oils contain molecules that transform into protective films that keep metal surfaces apart, preventing wear.

Shell Rimula R6 LM (10W-40)

Heavy Duty Synthetic Diesel Engine Oil

Shell Rimula R6 LM Energised Protection oil features Shell exclusive “ Low-SAP” additives technology reinforced by a novel and unique anti-wear system. 

Protective power is further energised through the use of synthetic base oil technology that enhances additive activity resulting in long engine life and long oil life.  Demonstrated in millions of km of real-world performance, key benefits are:

• Low Emissions – helps control blockage of exhaust filters and traps
• Maintenance Saving – Long Drain*
• Exceptional Wear and cleanliness performance
• Versatile – for diesel and natural gas engines

Suitable for virtually all modern low-emission heavy duty engines especially those with exhaust after-treatment devices meeting Euro 4, 5 emissions requirements

* Always follow OEM recommendations.  Maintenance interval extension may be possible if supported by an oil monitoring program such as Shell LubeAnalyst.
