The standard outlining the procedure is officially recognized as . Testing typically follows these specific parameters:
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.
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
A small grease sample is packed into a specialized metal cup with a standardized hole at the bottom.
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:
