The Four-Ball Tribometer is a high-precision laboratory instrument designed to evaluate the wear resistance, extreme-pressure (EP) performance, and friction characteristics of lubricating greases and oils. You can control load, speed, and temperature with high accuracy through pneumatic low/high load cylinders and an air-bearing torque measurement system. The instrument features a touch-screen PC interface for data acquisition and supports optional modules for rolling four-ball tests, shear stability evaluation, and high-resolution wear scar measurement.
Standards
You can perform tests in compliance with international standards, including:
(1) ASTM D2266 – Wear performance of lubricating grease
(2) ASTM D4172 – Wear performance of lubricating oil
(3) ASTM D2596 – Extreme-pressure performance of lubricating grease
(4) ASTM D2783 – Extreme-pressure performance of lubricating oil
(5) ASTM D5183 – Friction coefficient of lubricants (four-ball method)
(6) IP 239 – Lubricant extreme-pressure and wear tests
(7) DIN 51350/1-5 – Four-ball testing of lubricants
(8) ISO/CD 11008 – Extreme-pressure performance of lubricating grease (four-ball method)
(9) IP 300 – Rolling contact fatigue test (optional)
(10) DIN 51350/6 – Shear stability of polymer-containing lubricants (optional)
(11) CEC L-45-A-99 – Transmission oil shear stability test (optional)
(12) ISO 26422:2014 – Shear stability of polymer-containing lubricants (optional)
