In many applications, Mobil SHC offers extended drain intervals over mineral oils, helping reduce used oil disposal and minimising inventory management costs. The Mobil SHC family of high-performance synthetic lubricants are approved for use in more than 10,000 applications. In addition, Mobil SHC lubricants have exclusive / preferential endorsements from leading original equipment manufacturers for more than 2,200 applications, spanning a wide range of industries.
