Outstanding cleanliness

Meets cleanliness requirements of -/14/11 (ISO 4406), helping to provide smooth, trouble-free operations without additional on-site filtration.

GHG emissions reduction potential

By offering lifetime ODI capability, the product can deliver an estimated 80% reduction in Global Warming Potential (GWP) when compared to a product with an ODI of 5 years1.

Supreme load—carrying and compatibility

Low sulfur formulation offers enhanced compatibility with yellow metals and soft coatings, alongside high film thickness for improved protection during hot starts.

Does not contribute to WEC

Mobil SHC Gear 320 WindPower continues our tradition of wind turbine gear oils that are certified to not contribute to oil-related effects of White Etching Cracks (WEC) by DNV.

Robust anti-wear performance

Superb protection from micropitting fatigue and traditional scuffing, helping to extend gear and bearing life under extremes of load, speed and temperature.

Exceptional foam protection

Outstanding foam protection, even after fine filtration, helps to reduce the risk of false oil level alarms, spillage and environmental impact.

Wind turbine gear oil GWP tons of CO2-eq estimate is based on a finished lubricant well-to-gate. Based on an average turbine sump size, excluding potential flushing between oil change. Accounts for Mobil Xtra WT top treat program in years, 10 and 15. Estimate includes, respective Carbon Footprint of Products and oil drain interval.
