Shell Spirax S4 TXM

A UTTO oil for tractor transmissions, hydraulics and wet brakes

Shell Spirax S4 TXM is a SAE 10W-30 multi-purpose tractor oil (UTTO) for agricultural machinery and earthmoving equipment. One oil covers the gearbox, the hydraulic system, wet brakes and attached implements, and its additive package is designed for smooth running from a cold start to hot, heavy work.

Where it is used

• Transmissions on tractors and earthmoving machines
• Heavily loaded hydraulics
• Wet brakes, where friction modifiers give a quiet, smooth action

Properties

• Protects against wear, oxidation and corrosion
• Good low-temperature behaviour, so hydraulics and transmission respond quickly after a cold start
• Tested and approved by manufacturers such as ZF, CNH, Massey Ferguson and John Deere

Key data

• SAE 10W-30, viscosity index 138
• Viscosity 60 mm²/s at 40 °C and 9.4 mm²/s at 100 °C
• Density 882 kg/m³ at 15 °C, flash point 220 °C, pour point -42 °C
