Formulated under GOST 1033-79, these are intended for low-temperature applications up to about 65 °C. Their dropping points typically register on the lower end, around 75 °C to 100 °C.
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. Formulated under GOST 1033-79, these are intended 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 The exact temperature recorded on the thermometer when
The standard outlining the procedure is officially recognized as . Testing typically follows these specific parameters:
Note: While identical in premise, subtle variations in heating rates or cup dimensions between these standards can result in slight numerical differences in the final recorded temperature.
