Shell Helix HX7 10w-40

Helix HX7 10w-40 is from Shell’s range of leading semi synthetic engine oils.

It has been formulated with Shell’s ultimate active cleansing technology which prevents dirt particles sticking together to form sludge. It provides the best engine protection by preventing soot deposits from building up on your engine’s surfaces.

Other benefits of the Helix HX7 include:

• A greater oxidation stability due to the anti-oxidants in the oil. These intercept and neutralise free radical particles that would otherwise oxidise the oil. Oxidation can lead to unwanted oil thickening which reduces engine efficiency, the formation of black sludge that can black oil ducts and the formation of acids that can corrode metals in the engine.
• A high shear stability, which means that the oil maintains its viscosity even in the high temperature, stressful environment of a modern engine, maintaining engine protection.
• It is made from specially selected synthetic base oils which decrease oil consumption. This reduces the need for oil top-up.

Shell Helix HX7 10w-40 is suitable for fuel-injection petrol engines fitted with blow-by-gas recirculation and catalytic converters. It is also suitable for turbocharged and intercooled, direct injection diesel engines fitted with blow-by-gas recirculation without particulate filters.
