Gost | 6793

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)

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: gost 6793

is the state standard used across Russia and the CIS region to define the test method for determining the dropping point of petroleum products, primarily lubricating greases. If you are working with equipment or grease

Lubricating greases are engineered by combining a base oil with a thickener and performance additives. The thickener holds the oil like a sponge. As grease is heated, it reaches a temperature where the thickener can no longer retain the oil. The thickener holds the oil like a sponge

These multi-purpose greases boast a far higher dropping point, generally exceeding 180 °C under GOST 6793.

The standard outlining the procedure is officially recognized as . Testing typically follows these specific parameters:

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
