Key Features:

Enhanced Acid Control: Formulated with up to 33% more acid and corrosion control components compared to basic quality API CF oils, Shell Rimula R2 40 offers superior protection against corrosion from acids formed during fuel combustion.
Deposit Control: The advanced additive system helps maintain engine cleanliness by preventing the formation of harmful deposits, ensuring consistent performance and extending engine life.
Wear Protection: Designed to keep moving metal engine surfaces apart, Shell Rimula R2 40 provides reliable protection against wear, contributing to long engine life.

Applications:

Shell Rimula R2 40 is suitable for use in:

Many medium and heavy-duty trucking operations where non-turbocharged engines are used, especially where medium or higher fuel sulfur levels are found.
Stop-start operations such as city bus applications using non-turbocharged engines.
Off-highway applications such as agricultural tractors and light to medium-sized construction equipment where poorer quality fuels may be encountered.
