  • WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING GREASE (FOUR BALL METHOD): ASTM D2266 WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING GREASE (FOUR BALL METHOD): ASTM D2266(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 239, ISO 11008, and DIN 51350)EXPLANATIONThe four ball wear test method can be used to determine the relative wear preventing properties of greases in sliding steel-on-steel applications under specific ...
  • WEAR CHARACTERISTICS PREVENTING PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D3704 WEAR CHARACTERISTICS PREVENTING PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D3704EXPLANATIONThis test method is used to differentiate between greases having high, medium, and low wear preventive properties using Kailian Yongrun block-on-the ring friction and wear test machine.TEST SUMMARYThe tester is operated ...
  • WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING FLUID (FOUR BALL METHOD): ASTM D4172 WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING FLUID (FOUR BALL METHOD): ASTM D4172EXPLANATIONThis test method covers a procedure for making a preliminary evaluation of the anti-wear properties of fluid lubricants in sliding contact by means of the Four-Ball Wear Test Machine. No attempt has been made to correlate ...
  • WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF NON-PETROLEUM AND PETROLEUM HYDRAULIC FLUIDS: ASTM D7043 WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF NON-PETROLEUM AND PETROLEUM HYDRAULIC FLUIDS: ASTM D7043EXPLANATIONThis test method is an indicator of the wear characteristics of petroleum and non-petroleum hydraulic fluids operating in a constant volume vane pump. Excessive wear in vane pumps could lead to malfunction of hydraulic ...
  • WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF PETROLEUM HYDRAULIC FLUIDS: ASTM D6973 WEAR CHARACTERISTICS OF PETROLEUM HYDRAULIC FLUIDS: ASTM D6973EXPLANATIONThis test method is an indicator of the wear characteristics of petroleum hydraulic fluids operating in a constant volume vane pump. Excessive wear in vane pumps could lead to malfunction of hydraulic systems in critical industrial ...
  • WAX CONTENT OF CORRUGATED PAPERBOARD: ASTM D3344 WAX CONTENT OF CORRUGATED PAPERBOARD: ASTM D3344EXPLANATIONMany of the functional properties of wax-treated corrugated paperboard and cartons are dependent on the amount of wax present. In the case of the wax-saturated or wax-impregnated paperboard, the principle concern is with the weight of wax used ...
  • WAX APPLIED DURING CURTAIN COATING OPERATION: ASTM D3708 WAX APPLIED DURING CURTAIN COATING OPERATION: ASTM D3708EXPLANATIONWax coatings are applied to corrugated board to provide a barrier against moisture or other penetrates or to provide improved appearance or abrasion resistance. These functional properties are influenced by the amount of wax present on ...
  • WAX APPEARANCE POINT OF DISTILLATE FUELS: ASTM D3117 WAX APPEARANCE POINT OF DISTILLATE FUELS: ASTM D3117EXPLANATIONWax appearance point is the temperature at which wax crystals begin to precipitate out of a fuel under specified cooling conditions. The presence of wax crystals in the fuel may restrict flow or plug the fuel filter. In critical fuel systems, ...
  • WATER WASHOUT CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D1264 WATER WASHOUT CHARACTERISTICS OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D1264(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 215, ISO 11009, and DIN 51807 T2)EXPLANATIONThis test method covers the evaluation of the resistance of a lubricating grease to washout by water from a bearing, when tested at 38 and 79° C (100 and 175° F) ...
  • WATER UNDISSOLVED IN AVIATION TURBINE FUELS: ASTM D3240 WATER UNDISSOLVED IN AVIATION TURBINE FUELS: ASTM D3240EXPLANATIONUndissolved (free) water in aviation fuel can encourage the growth of microorganisms and subsequent corrosion in the tanks of aircraft and can also lead to icing of filters in the fuel system. The usual range of the test reading covers ...
