Drop detection

Definition: The dropping point of $‍×grease is the temperatur•±☆e, expressed in degrees, at which the★←₽∑ first drop of grease sample ↑‌♠drips from the grease cup in ✘©∑a dropping point apparatus. This tem≈ perature is known as the dropping poin←<t of the grease.

Key Points:

① The dropping point is an indicato"< ←r of the thermal stabε→♣₩ility of grease and can predic≈→®t its maximum operating temperatu₽•re.

② The higher the dropping p↕ &oint, the better the high-temperatu✔±re performance of the §π★grease. It provides an e‍Ωπ$stimate of the maximum temperature ™®limit for grease usage.

③ The dropping point also♦☆≤ reflects the grease™✔¥↕217;s resistance to leakag∏‌γ★e. It is influenced by &₩σ←the type and quantity of th₹​ickener used.

④ Generally, the higher the thickener§  content, the higher the droppiβ 'ng point, and the less likely the greas♦→&☆e is to leak. The dropping poin∑‍​t should exceed the working te✘>$mperature of the lubr÷♥icated part by 20–30°C.
