Complex or polyurea greases intended for extreme operating environments will feature dropping points clearing 230 °C to 250 °C. 🌍 International Equivalents
If you are working with equipment or grease specified under non-CIS metrics, the procedure outlined in GOST 6793 is highly comparable to the following international standards: or ASTM D2265 (United States) ISO 2176 (International Organization for Standardization) DIN 51801 (Germany) gost 6793
Technicians monitor the cup. The exact temperature recorded on the thermometer when the first drop falls through the bottom hole is officially cataloged as the dropping point. Complex or polyurea greases intended for extreme operating
When reading a technical data sheet (TDS) for an industrial or automotive grease manufactured under GOST standards, you will almost always see GOST 6793 cited next to the dropping point specification. For instance: When reading a technical data sheet (TDS) for
This measurement serves as a benchmark for a lubricant’s heat resistance, defining the maximum temperature it can endure before losing its structural integrity. ⚙️ How the GOST 6793 Test Works
In modern laboratory facilities, this process is automated using specialized instrumentation like the Lintel Kaplya-20U or similar specialized drop point devices. 🚜 Relevance in Lubricant Manufacturing
