A. Shell Gadus S4 V45AC 00/000 is for centralised lubrication systems and high-efficiency applications — particularly commercial vehicle chassis lubrication systems and centralised systems with long feed lines or cold-climate operation.
A. Yes, Shell Gadus S4 V45AC 00/000 was formerly known as Shell Retinax Grease CSZ and Shell Ossagol V.
A. NLGI is the universal grease consistency standard every reputable grease meets, ranging from NLGI 000 (semi-fluid) to NLGI 3 (firm). It is your baseline check — match the grade your handbook specifies (e.g., NLGI 2 for most multi-purpose applications) and the grease is technically suitable for your machine. Every grease on our site lists its NLGI grade.
A. Shell Gadus S4 V45AC 00/000 is NLGI 00/000 — a very soft semi-fluid grease consistency.
A. An OEM Specification is the grease requirement set by a vehicle or equipment manufacturer (e.g., MB 267.0, MAN 283 Li-P 2). When a grease lists the code, the grease manufacturer has developed and tested it to meet the criteria the equipment manufacturer requires. Match the code in your handbook and you have a grease engineered for your machine.
A. An OEM Approval means the grease has been formally tested and signed off by the equipment manufacturer and listed on their official approved-products register (e.g., MB-Approval 267.0). An Approval confirms the grease is recognised by the equipment manufacturer for service use in their machines.
A. Shell Gadus S4 V45AC 00/000 carries MAN M283 Li approval — the MAN commercial vehicle chassis lubrication specification.
A. The V45 indicates the ISO VG 45 base-oil viscosity — significantly lighter than the more common V220 — and AC indicates the Anti-Corrosion additive package.
A. NLGI 00/000 semi-fluid greases are required for centralised lubrication systems with long feed lines where the grease must pump through small-diameter pipes, and for cold-climate operation where stiffer greases would not pump. Commercial vehicle chassis systems and many automated lubrication systems specify these very soft grades.
