Shell Rotella T6 SAE 15W-40- 1 GALLONS
Shell Rotella T6 SAE 15W-40-1 GALLON
New technology. Same hard work
The viscosity grade that we know our customers prefer and trust1, now available in a full synthetic product. Shell Rotella® T6 15W-40 Heavy Duty Engine Oil is a full synthetic product formulated for improved2 hard working protection resulting in:
Improved wear protection
Improved protection against oxidation
Improveddepositcontrol/cleanliness
Improved low temperature flow
Improved corrosion control
Cold Climate Protection
Shell Rotella® T6 15W-40 provides better cold cranking properties and low temperature pumpability at -15°C compared to conventional and semi-synthetic Shell Rotella® 15W-40 products5. That means it reaches critical engine parts faster than conventional and synthetic blend oils in colder temperatures, to minimize wear and make hard work easier in cold climates5.
5Shell Rotella® T6 demonstrates better low temperature flow in SAE J300 requirements including MRV (ASTM D4684) and CCS (ASTM D5293)
Improved Oxidation Performance
Shell Rotella® T6 15W-40 provides strong oxidation resistance in the new Volvo T-13 test, controlling harmful acid build up, and easily exceeding the API CK-4 limits for oxidation (Peak IR) and viscosity increase. With improved oxidation resistance comes better viscosity control, which helps maintain fuel economy. If the oil is not thickening up, then the fuel economy performance will be better maintained throughout the oil drain. Better oxidation performance also helps prevent deposits in the engine, in other words, maintains cleanliness and helps prevent acid buildup, which can cause corrosive wear in the engine.
Formulated for every hard working need
Shell Rotella® T6 15W-40 is suitable for virtually all modern low-emission heavy duty engines4 and older hard working diesel engines. With its wide range of specifications, and approvals from many of the world’s leading engine makers, it is an excellent choice for on-highway fleets, general haul, construction, agriculture, public-transport operators and diesel pick-up trucks.

Delivers excellent oil consumption control
Lower volatility in conjunction with detergents and dispersant used in Shell Rotella T6 15W-40 help provide excellent oil consumption control. Shell Rotella® T6 15W-40 provides lower oil volatility in the Noack test compared to conventional Shell Rotella® T4 15W-40. Lower Volatility = Lower Oil Consumption.
Wear protection beyond CK-4 standards
There are two basic types of wear in an engine: mechanical and corrosive wear, which is found when acids form
during the combustion process. Part of an engine oil’s responsibility is to protect against wear. In API industry wear tests,ShellRotella® T615W-40didn’tjustmeetCK-4specs,
it demonstrated an 85% improvement in copper corrosion protection and 98% improvement in lead corrosion protection than required, an average of 50% more wear protection than required.
