$26.00$52.80


1.1 This test method evaluates the lubricity (load carrying ability) of diesel fuels using a scuffling load ball-on-cylinder lubricity evaluator (SLBOCLE).

1.2 This test method is applicable to middle distillate fuels, such as Grades Low Sulfur No. 1 D, and No. 2 D diesel fuels, in accordance with Specification D 975; and other similar petroleum-based fuels which can be used in diesel engines.

Note 1- It is not known that this test method will predict the performance of all additive/fuel combinations. Additional work is underway to further establish this correlation and future revisions of thistest method may be necessary once this work is complete.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazard statements are given in Section 7.
