KRL

Shear stability tester (KRL) for determining the mechanical shear stability of lubricating oils

The tapered roller bearing shear test (KRL test) is a specialized method designed to assess the mechanical stability of lubricants under high shear conditions. Conducted according to the DIN 51821 standard, this test evaluates a lubricant’s ability to maintain its consistency (shear stability) over extended periods of use. It is especially suited for lubricants that must endure extreme mechanical shear and high temperatures.

Applications

  • Automotive gear oil
  • Industrial gear oil
  • Multi-grade engine oil
  • Automatic transmission fluid
  • High-pressure hydraulic oil
  • Lubricating grease
