Testing Methodology
Four Ball Wear: This test is used for evaluating friction-reducing and anti-wear fluids. Testing involves 3 stationary steel balls secured in a steel cup and a 4th steel ball lowered to make contact with the 3 stationary balls. The fluid to be tested is poured into the cup. The 4th ball is the only ball that spins. Typical rpm for the ball is 1200 rpm. The single ball spins in contact with the 3 stationary balls at a constant load of 40 kg. Typical run time is 1 hour. The wear on the lower 3 balls is measured and reported in mm. The fluid to produce the smallest wear scars has the best performance.
Test results clearly show that the alkylphenol free polymeric polyphosphites give excellent results, better than the commercial trisnonylphenyl thiophosphate with excellent color. And there are no alkylphenols in the final products.
Timken Testing: Timken testing was carried out by adding weight to a lever applying pressure to a block that is in contact with a wheel. The bottom portion of the wheel is submersed in the fluid to be tested. As the wheel spins, the lubricant is carried to the interface of the block and wheel. A one pound weight is added to the lever every minute until a maximum of 13 pounds has been added. The wear scar on the block is measured and reported in millimeters. See

Oil Based Formulae
Water Based Formulae
The water based formulae were prepared using a commercial semi-synthetic. The additive was added to either the Super Concentrate (SC) prior to dilution of the semi-synthetic with water, or to the concentrate after 50% dilution of the semi-synthetic with water. After the 50% dilution with water, all testing was conducted with the semi-synthetic diluted in water at 5%.

Vertical Drawbead: Vertical Drawbead is a machine used to determine a fluids ability to form a piece of metal. Vertical Drawbead works by applying pressure to a coated metal strip. The formulae to be tested is applied to a 24 inch metal strip which is raised between two dye. The dyes apply 500 psi of pressure to the bottom of the strip. The coated strip is pulled between the two dyes. The amount of force needed to pull the strip between the dyes, is plotted by an X-Y plotter and the force is calculated from this curve. In all cases, higher percent efficiency refers to the performance of the fluid being better.
In this test, all formulae were evaluated on 1018 Steel and 316 Stainless Steel.

1018 Steel
Microtap Tap and Torque Testing: Microtap testing is one method used to determine a fluids ability to remove metal. A metal bar with predrilled holes is fastened to a vice. The tap and the metal bar are coated in the fluid to be tested. The tap rotates to tap out the pre-drilled hole. The force needed to tap the hole is measured by a computer and is reported as torque in newton centimeters. In all cases, higher percent efficiency refers to the performance of the fluid being better.
In this test, all formulae were evaluated on 1018 Steel.
1018 Steel
Falex Pin and Vee Block Testing: Falex Pin and Vee Block measures the fluids ability to perform in more severe operations, such as cold heading, but can also apply to grinding operations. A pin is fastened using a brass shear pin. Two Vee blocks are clamped onto the pin. The pin and vee blocks are submerged in the fluid to be tested. The load applied on the pin from the vee blocks begins at 250 pounds. The load is increased automatically by a ratcheting arm as the pin spins between the two vee blocks. The torque generated by the load on the pin is read at 250 pound load and is recorded every 250 pounds until a final load of 4500 pounds is reached or a failure occurs. A failure implies the pin or shear pin has broken. See
