Lubricant Selection Advice
|
|
|
|
It is generally a good idea to avoid using extreme-pressure (EP) additives unless they are specifically required to reduce adhesive wear conditions (scuffing, galling, scoring, etc.). Some EP additives can diminish a lubricant's oxidation stability (shortening service life). They can also be slightly corrosive to certain metals (e.g., yellow metals), especially at elevated temperatures.

Viscosity is the most important property of an oil. It's the main criteria permitting the lubricant to perform as a separating barrier between contacting surfaces. Therefore, it is essential that viscosity be at the top of nearly every oil analysis test slate.
