Evaluation of Service Lubricants and Metals.

Abstract

General properties of lubricants under boundary conditions are discussed. There is a considerable difference in the results which depends solely on the lubricant. Results of three new oils are included and show good correlation with the results of a 200 hour Ford Tornado test. Photographs of test wear scars are given and are similar to engine liner wear.
