Q 1. What applications is Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 designed for?

A. Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 is for electric motor bearings and other applications where extended re-lubrication intervals and exceptional bearing protection are required — the 'EMS' historical designation indicates Electric Motor Service positioning.

Q 2. Is Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 the same as Shell Albida EMS?

A. Yes, Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 was previously named Shell Albida Grease EMS 2.

Q 3. What is the Shell Gadus S5 range?

A. Shell Gadus S5 is the ultra-premium range in the Shell Gadus family — the top-tier offerings for the most demanding high-temperature, heavy-load and long-life industrial applications.

Q 4. What does the 'EMS' in the historical Albida EMS name mean?

A. 'EMS' indicates Electric Motor Service — the product was historically positioned for sealed-for-life electric motor bearings where extended re-lubrication intervals are required.

Q 5. What is an NLGI grade?

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.

Q 6. What is the NLGI grade of Shell Gadus S5 V100 2?

A. Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 is NLGI 2 — the standard bearing-grade grease consistency.

Q 7. What is the difference between Shell Gadus S5 V100 2 and S5 V100 2?

A. Both are Shell Gadus V100 NLGI 2 multi-purpose greases. S2 V100 2 is the mainstream lithium/calcium HP grease for general bearing service. S5 V100 2 (this product) is the ultra-premium long-life range for electric motor and extended re-lubrication interval applications.

Q 8. What is an OEM Specification?

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.

Q 9. What is an OEM Approval?

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.
