Extending Chain and Sprocket Life
|
|
|
|
If you are having trouble with short chain and sprocket life, build the chain guard to hold oil and line the bottom of the guard with a wear-resistant material such as UHMW. UHMW is a lubricant-impregnated Teflon wear strip. The chain will drag on the wear strip, and the life of the chain will increase remarkably, especially if it is running in a dirty environment. (Craig Palculict, Georgia-Pacific)

A short-volume oil change involves only draining and refilling the oil in the system tank or sump. While there are several good reasons to perform a short-volume oil change, there are also many dangers to be considered.

Testing Lubricant Aging Resistance
|
|
|
From "Automotive Lubricants and Testing":
The aging resistance or oxidation stability of a lubricant is usually determined by its chemical structure and the amount of protective stabilizers. Bearing metals, polymers, higher ambient temperatures, wear particles or aggressive ambient media accelerate the aging of the lubricant. The testing of the aging resistance should be designed in such a manner that inferences can be made about the long-term behavior in practice or the suitability of a lubricant for use in precision mechanics or both.
