A lubricant is a substance introduced to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces moves.

Lubricants perform the following key functions:

  • Keep moving parts apart
  • Reduce friction
  • Transfer heat
  • Carry away contaminants
  • Transmit power
  • Protect against wear
  • Prevent corrosion
  • Seal for gases
  • Prevent rust
