Title: Helix Ultra Demo Tool Film Spinner 0W vs 5W
Duration: {1:37} minutes
Description:
This demonstration uses two metal spinners to represent the moving parts in an engine and you can see from the spinner demonstration that Shell Helix 0W has a better performance than other typical 5W motor oil.
Helix Ultra Demo Tool Film Spinner 0W vs 5W Transcript
Narrator: The metal surfaces of components inside an engine move against each other at high speed
Narrator: Thinner engine oil creates less friction, meaning the components move more easily retaining more power in the engine
Narrator: This demonstration uses two metal spinners in separate steel trays to represent the moving parts in an engine
Narrator: In one tray, there is a typical 5W engine oil
Narrator: In the other, there is Shell Helix Ultra 0W, a low viscosity engine oil
Narrator: Let's see which engine oil creates less friction and keeps the spinners moving faster for longer
Narrator: And the same again at a higher temperature
Narrator: As you can see, Shell Helix Ultra 0W performed better in both temperatures
Narrator: It has lower viscosity at low temperature and provides 60% less friction, meaning parts and engines can move more easily
Narrator: In addition, it provides 58% better resistance to engine oil degradation under extreme engine temperatures
Narrator: And 56% better wear protection

RECOMMENDED OILS FOR COMPARISON:
- Shell Helix Ultra 0W vs oils of other viscosity
- Other viscosity oils of 10W or 5W
DEMO PROCEDURE
PREPARATION
- One with Shell Helix Ultra 0W, and the other with oil of another viscosity.
DEMONSTRATION
- Place the tool base on a level surface and carefully dispense the two oils into the two trays.
Remarks:
- The amount of oil used should be no more than one dollar coin size.
- Place the Shell Helix Ultra 0W on the side nearest the Brand logo. - Hold the spinners by their tops, place them onto the metal trays and move them around to ensure the oils are applied evenly to the bottoms and spread around the trays.
- Twist the spinners until the red dots are facing the same direction and the bottom of the spinners are sat on the surface of the trays. Hold the top tightly and spin both at the same time using the same force. Let’s see which one spins for longer.
Remarks: If uneven force is used please spin again, as this is not a fair comparison.
KEY OBSERVATIONS
- When spun, you will see how Shell Helix Ultra 0W reduces friction between the spinner and the tray and keeps spinning for longer.
POST DEMO
- When the demo is done, please apply oil stain remover onto the spinners and the trays.
- Use a cloth or tissues to wipe the tools clean before storing them in a safe place.
PRECAUTIONS
FOR THE DEMO
- If different sets of oils are to be compared, please clean the tools first making sure no oils left in the tool, and repeat the procedure as listed above.
- If the oils are oxidized or mixed with other oils, please use fresh oil for the next demo.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
- Engine oils are flammable, please pay close attention. No smoking or any fire-lighting activity is allowed during the demo process.
- Tools must be operated under the supervision of a trained mechanic within a controlled environment wearing protective gloves.
- Protect the environment and dispose of used items properly.
