Years Serving Irish Agriculture
Agricultural Product Categories
9001:2015 Certified
Approved Specifications
Products covering John Deere, New Holland, Case IH, Massey Ferguson, Claas, and Deutz-Fahr specifications. We distinguish formal approvals from "meets requirements" claims.
Our team advises on the correct oil grade, change interval, and specification for your specific tractor model and operating conditions — not a generic recommendation.
5 litre through to 200 litre barrel and bulk supply. Suitable for individual farms, agricultural contractors, and co-operative purchasing groups across Ireland.

Construction, quarrying, forestry and earthmoving equipment operates under heavy loads, long hours and demanding site conditions.
Gem Oils supplies engine oils, hydraulic oils, gear oils, greases and other lubricants for excavators, loaders, dumpers and other off-highway machinery.
From fishing vessels and work boats to leisure craft and harbour operations, marine equipment operates in demanding environments where the right lubrication matters.
We supply marine engine and gear oils, hydraulic oils, greases and cleaning products for marine applications.
Manufacturing, engineering, processing, concrete production and forestry operations depend on lubrication across a wide range of equipment.
Our industrial range includes hydraulic oils, compressor oils, cutting fluids, gear oils and industrial greases for machinery and production environments.
Commercial vehicles need to stay productive, whether that’s a single truck or a larger mixed fleet.
We supply heavy-duty diesel engine oils, AdBlue, gear oils, greases and other lubricants for HGVs, buses, tippers, trailers and commercial fleets.
From tractors and combines to dairy equipment and general farm machinery, agricultural equipment operates through long hours and demanding conditions.
We supply engine oils, UTTO and STOU fluids, hydraulic oils, transmission lubricants, greases and milking machine oils for agricultural applications.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
Engine oils, UTTO/STOU, tractor hydraulic fluids, front axle oils, and greases for all major tractor brands including John Deere, New Holland, Case IH, Massey Ferguson, Claas, Fendt, and Deutz-Fahr. Products matched to model-specific OEM requirements.
Engine oils, hydraulic oils, and gear oils for combine harvester platforms, headers, and threshing systems. Formulations meeting the high-load and high-temperature demands of continuous harvesting operations.
Vacuum pump oil for milking parlour installations — rotary, herringbone, parlour, and robotic systems. Milking machine oil suitable for continuous daily use in dairy farm environments across Ireland.
Hydraulic oils and gear oils for telehandlers, telescopic loaders, and front-end loader attachments used in farm yards and on-site material handling. Includes fire-resistant hydraulic formulations for loader operations near stored material.
Gear oils and EP greases for ploughs, cultivators, seed drills, and disc harrows. High-load EP greases for implement pivots, disc bearings, and depth wheel hubs operating under soil abrasion conditions.
Bulk supply options for agricultural contracting businesses operating multi-machine fleets across multiple farms. Drum and bulk delivery available. Volume pricing on application — contact the Gem Oils team to discuss your requirements.
The most common source of incorrect lubricant use on farms is the assumption that all tractor oils are interchangeable. They are not. The distinction between UTTO and STOU, and between these and a dedicated engine oil, matters — and using the wrong oil can damage wet brake systems, reduce hydraulic performance, or void the manufacturer’s warranty.
The starting point is always the tractor’s operator manual or the OEM specification plate. The table below gives a general guide to the main categories and their applications. If you are unsure which product applies to your equipment, contact the Gem Oils technical team before purchasing.

We do not use call centres or generic product finders. When you contact Gem Oils with a lubrication question about your tractor, combine, or dairy equipment, you speak directly to someone who can confirm the correct specification, grade, and product for your specific machine and application.
Every product page in our agricultural range states the specifications it meets and the OEM approvals it carries — with a clear distinction between formal approvals and products that meet a specification's requirements. You can specify with confidence and in compliance with your machine's warranty terms.
Supply from our Cavan base to farms, agri-merchants, and co-operatives across all 32 counties. Bulk delivery available for high-volume agricultural customers. ISO 9001:2015 certified supply chain. Family-owned since 1962 — with the relationships and local knowledge that comes with 60 years serving Irish agriculture.
