Key Features:

Improved Wear Resistance: Shell Rimula R3 Turbo has demonstrated excellent wear protection in critical engine areas, including ring wear, liner wear, crosshead wear, and cam follower wear. It surpasses the performance limits of previous generation oils, such as API CG-4 and CF-4.
Exceptional Deposit Control: The oil effectively controls the buildup of deposits on pistons, maintaining engine efficiency and cleanliness. In key engine deposit tests, it exhibited lower levels of deposits than the minimum performance requirements for API CH-4.
Increased Heat Resistance: Developed to resist breakdown by heat, Shell Rimula R3 Turbo ensures continued protection under heavy-duty service. It exceeds the requirements of key industry high-temperature oxidation tests by up to 58%, providing a robust safety margin for all but the most severe operations.
