Two procedures are described for making a preliminary evaluation of the load-carrying properties of fluid lubricants by means of the Falex Lubricant Tester, which is described schematically. In both methods, a rotating steel journal is run at 290 +- 10 rpm against two stationary V-blocks immersed in the lubricant sample. Load is applied to the V-blocks by a ratchet mechanism continuously in one procedure and in 250-lb of increments with the load maintained constant for 1 min at each load increment in the other procedure. A schematic drawing of calibration accessories for the Falex Lubricant Tester, statistical data, standard calibration curves, and tabulated comparative results on reference fluids are also included.
