AeroShell Aviation Lubricants

The right turbine engine oil is vital for Airbus, Boeing and other aircraft with a maximum take-off mass of over 5,700 kg, which would be classed as a large jet by the European Aviation Safety Agency. Using a premium jet oil that’s approved for your aircraft can protect its parts from wear and tear, save you money on maintenance and keep your large jet flying for longer.

We understand the need for helicopter lubricants with proven performance. Any failure of an aircraft’s power plant, transmission or hydraulic system is unacceptable. As helicopters often operate in confined, challenging and hostile environments, failure can be catastrophic. That is why we have developed a comprehensive range of high-performance products for helicopters.
