Purpose and Specifications

Shell Spirax S2 A 80W-90 is a premium GL-5 transmission oil designed for heavy-duty axles, differentials, and hypoid gears in cars, trucks, and motorcycles. This 1L bottle delivers tough anti-wear protection that keeps gears smooth under high loads and shock, while resisting rust and oxidation for longer life. It flows easily down to -27°C for cold starts and holds a strong oil film up to 175°C, protecting parts in extreme heat or heavy towing.

Practical perks include reduced gear noise, less wear during high-speed or low-speed torque, and reliable performance in automotive transmissions or separate motorcycle gear units. Replace every 50,000-100,000 km or 24-36 months under normal use, or sooner for severe duty like off-road or hauling.
