ASTM D5763-95(2001)
Historical Standard: ASTM D5763-95(2001) Standard Test Method for Oxidation and Thermal Stability Characteristics of Gear Oils Using Universal Glassware
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D5763
1. Scope
1.1 This test method overs the determination of the oxidation characteristics of extreme pressure and non-extreme pressure gear oils and includes the quantitative determination of total sludge, viscosity change, and oil loss.
Note 1While the round-robin tests used ISO VG 220 extreme pressure gear oils for developing precision data, the test method can be extended to other viscosity grades and to non-extreme pressure gear oils. Refer to Classification D 2422 for viscosity grades.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
