Fast and clean loading and unloading of grease gun
Greases - Gadus
The Shell Gadus range has been developed to deliver best value through enhanced wear protection, long grease life and system efficiency.
From greases that offer reliable performance for standard applications to specialist low noise, high-temperature and heavy-load greases, there is a Shell Gadus product that can help to optimise your system’s efficiency and costs of operation.
Shell Gadus high performance greases now available for the Lube-Shuttle® screw cartridge system.
The future of clean and efficient greasing
Greasing equipment with standard grease guns can be a dirty and time-consuming task. As a result, it can be seen as an unwelcome job and sometimes gets skipped.
At Shell we’ve now introduced a better alternative available for efficiently greasing equipment: the Lube-Shuttle® Screw Cartridge System.
Lube-Shuttle® takes the hassle out of greasing, it is quick, easy and clean.
Loading the Lube-Shuttle® grease gun with the grease cartridge can be done in three simple steps:
- Screw cap off
- Push grease slightly over the neck of the tube
- Screw the cartridge into the gun
System benefits include?
- No tear-off caps or tools required to open and close after use – reducing waste and minimising risk of potential contamination;
- Sealed cartridge with a plunger, operated by vacuum, eliminates the need for the heavy spring and plunger found on a standard grease gun;
- Stable 1-inch screw head – tearing off the screw head less likely versus other screw cartridge systems;
- The grade used in the grease gun is visible, the fill status can easily be checked;
- Lube-Shuttle® cartridges are recyclable. They are made of low-impurity plastic with little residue is left in the cartridge once emptied, product recycling and protection of the environment are optimized;
- Even flow of grease, even if fluidity is low;
- The design of the plunger minimizes leaking and enables almost total consumption of the grease inside the cartridge helping to save time, money and resources.
