Block-on-Ring Results Engine Oils

 

Seizure point test

This section presents the results of the Block-on-Ring Seizure Point Test conducted on several widely available engine oils.
 
The data is divided into two categories—cold run and hot run—to reflect the different temperature conditions found in internal combustion engines.
 
The results are sorted by seizure load in descending order, highlighting each product's highest load-bearing capacity.
 
Additionally, groove size is used to indicate the extent of damage to the test sample, providing insight into how well each lubricant minimizes wear under high load conditions.

Creep test 

This section presents the results of the Block-on-Ring Creep Test conducted on several widely available engine oils.

All oils were tested at their nominal operating temperature to ensure accurate assessment of their performance under typical conditions.
 
The data is divided into three static load sections, sorted by groove size in descending order to highlight the extent of damage to the test sample.
 
This helps evaluate how well each lubricant minimizes wear under continuous stress, providing a measure of its durability over time.

To qualify for the next test section, the groove depth must not exceed 0.25[mm].
