Q 1. What applications is Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 designed for?

A. Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 is for worm-gear drives — the sliding contact and high-efficiency demands of worm gears favour a synthetic gear grease with low friction and high film strength.

Q 2. Is Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 the same as Shell Tivela GL?

A. Yes, Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 was formerly known as Shell Tivela Grease GL 00.

Q 3. 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 4. What is the NLGI grade of Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00?

A. Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 is NLGI 00 — a semi-fluid grease consistency suiting enclosed worm-gear housings.

Q 5. What does the 'W' in Gadus V142W mean?

A. The 'W' designation indicates worm-gear positioning — the product is specifically formulated for the lubrication requirements of worm-gear drives.

Q 6. What classifications does Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 meet?

A. Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00 meets ASTM D4048 (copper corrosion); ASTM D942 (oxidation stability); and ASTM D1743 (rust prevention).

Q 7. Why are worm gears lubricated differently from spur gears?

A. Worm gears transmit power through sliding contact between the worm and worm wheel — much more sliding than the rolling contact in spur, helical or bevel gears. This sliding contact generates more heat and requires lubricants with specific anti-wear and low-friction characteristics, typically synthetic gear oils or specialised worm-gear greases such as Shell Gadus S5 V142W 00.

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.
