Shell Lubricants for Heavy-Duty Engines
Shell Rimula heavy-duty diesel engine oils are trusted worldwide for their durability and innovation.
Key Offerings:
- Shell Rimula R6 LM / LME: Low-emission oils for Euro 5 & Euro 6 trucks using EGR and SCR technology.
- Rimula R6 LME+ 5W-30: Fully synthetic low-SAPS oil, offering superior wear protection, fuel savings, and reduced CO₂ emissions.
- Extended oil drain intervals to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
- OEM approvals from Mercedes-Benz, MAN, Volvo, DAF, and Scania.
Valvoline Premium Lubricants for Mixed Fleets
Valvoline Premium Blue and All Fleet products are co-engineered with Cummins to deliver unmatched protection and compatibility across diverse fleets.
Highlights:
- Valvoline Premium Blue One Solution™ Gen2: Meets API CK-4 / FA-4 and ACEA E6/E9 for the latest emission engines.
- Advanced synthetic formulations resist oxidation, improve cold starts, and maintain viscosity under extreme heat.
- Low-ash chemistry protects diesel particulate filters (DPF) and emission systems.
- Suitable for on-road, off-road, and mixed service applications.
Synthetic Oil Technology: Efficiency Meets Protection
Synthetic lubricants are transforming the heavy-duty transport industry. Compared to conventional mineral oils, they deliver:
- Enhanced thermal stability and oxidation resistance for extended drain intervals.
- Improved cold-weather performance, ensuring faster lubrication at startup.
- Reduced friction and wear, improving fuel efficiency and minimizing downtime.
- Cleaner operation, keeping pistons and turbochargers free of harmful deposits.
Lube Line’s synthetic portfolio includes:
- Shell Rimula R6 LME+ 5W-30
- Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme FA-4 5W-30
- Valvoline SynPower MST 5W-40
These oils meet the latest global OEM and API/ACEA standards and are backward compatible with most Euro 4–6 engines.
AdBlue & Modern Emission Systems
To comply with tightening emission standards, many modern diesel engines rely on Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology.
AdBlue—a urea-based Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)—plays a critical role in reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.
Lube Line AdBlue Supply:
- ISO 22241-certified AdBlue for Euro 5 & 6 trucks.
- Bulk, IBC, and 10L–20L packaging options available nationwide.
- Prevents crystallization and ensures system reliability.
- Compatible with Mercedes-Benz, Scania, MAN, Volvo, DAF, Iveco, Hino, UD Trucks, and others.
