Standard Test Method for Evaluation of Load-Carrying Capacity of Lubricants Used in Hypoid Final-Drive Axles Operated under Low-Speed and High-Torque Conditions

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method measures a lubricant's ability to protect hypoid final drive axles from abrasive wear, adhesive wear, plastic deformation, and surface fatigue when subjected to low-speed, high-torque conditions. Lack of protection can lead to premature gear or bearing failure, or both.

5.2 This test method is used, or referred to, in specifications and classifications of rear-axle gear lubricants such as:

5.2.1 Specification D7450.

5.2.2 American Petroleum Institute (API) Publication 1560.

5.2.3 SAE J308.

5.2.4 SAE J2360.
