Low Temperatures

When the temperature drops, possibly below 0°C, lubricants often stop functioning properly.

When a lubricant reaches the freezing or pour point, it can no longer flow, and ceases to do its job.

For low-temperature applications, synthetic products are recommended especially for:

• cold-starting equipment,
• protecting machinery,
• allowing lubricants to be easily pumped, since they have the appropriate viscosity index.
