Description / Abstract:
Designation of Lubricants, and Marking of Containers and
Equipment Lube Points
This index provides an overview of lubricants and symbols for
the purpose of assisting the user in the identification of the
appropriate product and relevant SAE specification. The aim is to
better determine the best lubricant to be used for a particular
application.
If containers used for shipping lubricants are also to be
marked, the same identification and symbols should be used.

instructions.
