Product description

Shell Rimula R4 X shows excellent control of acids by reducing the accumulation of acids and chemical corrosion of engine bearings. Harmful acids from fuel combustion are controlled by using selected detergent additives to neutralise them and help to prevent corrosion of metal surfaces
Shell Rimula R4 X offers high levels of engine wear protection in the critical areas of the valve train, piston ring and cylinder liners. This wear control is achieved through the addition of anti-wear additives that are designed to form protective films in metal-to-metal contacts when needed under different engine operating conditions, and by the use of soot dispersant additives to keep soot particles finely dispersed to help prevent wear.

Health and Safety

Shell Rimula R4 X is unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application and good standards of personal hygiene are maintained. Avoid contact with skin. Use impervious gloves with used oil. After skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water.

Protect the Environment

Take used oil to an authorised collection point. Do not discharge into drains, soil or water
