Standard Test Method for Comparison of Metalworking Fluids Using a Tapping Torque Test Machine

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method can be used to predict the comparative lubricating properties of a metalworking fluid (MWF).

5.1.1 Fluids that produce lower torques or higher efficiencies are predicted to have better machining characteristics.

5.2 The method is applicable to all tap types, machining speeds, alloys and coatings that can be fabricated into a test piece.

5.3 Comparison between different operating conditions or various types of fluids can be made.

5.4 The reportable quantity is the efficiency or mean average torque of a reference fluid divided by the mean average torque of the fluid of interest.
