ISO VG 32 grade oils
Viscosity is the first thing to settle when choosing an oil: load-carrying capacity, film thickness and cold-start behaviour all follow from it. This page covers the equipment that typically calls for ISO VG 32 and lists the catalogue products in that grade.
Where this grade is used
- Compressor & Refrigeration Oils
- Hydraulic & Turbine Oils
- Specialities & Other Fluids
ISO VG 32 products in the catalogue
- Shell Refrigeration Oil S4 FR-F 32 — Refrigeration compressor oil
- Shell Refrigeration Oil S4 FR-V 32 — Refrigeration compressor oil
- Shell Tellus S2 MX 32 — Hydraulic system oil
- Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 — Hydraulic system oil
- Shell Tellus S4 VX 32 — Specialty hydraulic fluid
- Shell Turbo T 32 — Turbine oil
- Shell Naturelle S2 Hydraulic Fluid 32 — Environmentally acceptable lubricant
- Shell Tegula V 32 — Transmission fluid
Before changing grade
- Moving one grade up increases film thickness but makes cold pumpability harder.
- Moving one grade down reduces churning losses yet raises the risk of film breakdown under high load.
- The equipment builder's viscosity window should be the reference for any change.
- If the system is not fully drained, the resulting mixed viscosity has to be accounted for.
