Let’s discuss the differences between various lubricant grades

Thread Content

Let’s talk about other differences besides viscosity, which vary depending on the lubricant grade – for example, what are the differences between 32 and 46?

I don’t know. Those who want to reserve seats in the front row, please help!:):)

Viscosity is just one indicator; there are many other parameters such as flash point, ignition point, acid value, freezing point, and so on!

For lubricants of the same brand and type, if only the viscosity grade differs, it is mainly due to variations in viscosity. Equipment that operates at high speeds requires lubricants with low viscosity, while equipment that operates at low speeds under heavy loads needs lubricants with high viscosity

For the same brand, the only difference is the viscosity; all other specifications are essentially identical. But it’s hard to compare different brands. There’s also synthetic oil, but that will be much more expensive. Mineral oil is generally used.

The same type of lubricant simply has different grades, with only a change in viscosity; for example, turbine oil 32/46
