Shell Tellus S2 M 100 • INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

Industrial Hydraulic Fluid

Shell Tellus S2 M fluids are high performance hydraulic fluids that provide outstanding protection and
performance in most manufacturing and many mobile equipment operations. They resist breakdown under heat
or mechanical stress and help prevent damaging deposit formation that can decrease the efficiency of your
hydraulic power system.
