• high oil film strength
• very good anti-wear properties
• corrosion protection including operation in the presence of water
• designed for heavily loaded pneumatic tools
• suitable for oil mist lubrication systems
• good low-temperature fluidity
• emulsifying properties supporting lubrication in wet operating conditions
• can be used in selected gear and bearing applications exposed to water ingress

Applications

Shell Air Tool Oil S2 A 100 is primarily intended for:

• pneumatic hammers and other impact air tools
• pneumatic drilling equipment
• equipment used in mining and construction
• oil mist lubrication systems
• pneumatic tools used on production lines
• selected bearing and gear systems exposed to water ingress

Technical data

Protection in wet operating conditions

Shell Air Tool Oil S2 A 100 provides corrosion protection even in applications where water can enter the pneumatic system. Its emulsifying characteristics help maintain lubrication in wet environments which is particularly important for pneumatic equipment used outdoors and in demanding mining and construction applications.

Compatibility

The product is compatible with sealing materials and paints normally specified for use with mineral oils.

Storage and handling

Store the product in its original tightly closed container away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Oil spills can create a slipping hazard and should be collected immediately using a suitable absorbent material.

Used oil should not be discharged into drains soil or surface water. Waste oil should be transferred to an appropriate collection facility or authorised waste contractor.
