LUBE OIL & FILTER

Lubricants or lube oils are the lifeblood of every ‘oil-wetted’ machinery. Such is the importance that an engine cannot practically work without the presence of lube oil. Lube oil not only ensures the smooth & resistance free movement of the internal components of an engine by isolating all parts from each other, but it also carries out a number of other very critical tasks such as:

• Lubrication: It provides lubrication to all the moving parts to reduce friction and wear.
• Cooling: It absorbs the heat produced by the engine and effectively dissipates it.
• Cleaning: The lube oil transports additives such as detergents and dispersants for cleaning, by picking up the foreign particles formed during combustion.
• Sealing: The oil also seals the combustion chamber from the crankcase by acting as a liquid film between piston rings and liner walls.
