| Description |
In India and in a few other developing countries, about 80% of total auto-gear oils being used are
of API GL-4 level or MIL-L-2105 type. TIlis specification prescribes CRC-L-19, high speed
shock load rear axle and CRC-L-20, high torque low speed rear axle tests. The facility for L-19
test does not exist today where as the test facility for L-20 test is limited due to availability of
few sets of test gears. The current trend for the use of API GL-4 type oils will continu'e in India.
In view of requirement not qnly in India but in some other developing countries, a need is felt to
generate this test facilities at low cost and time. The paper describes the test method for
evaluation of load bearing capacity of GL-4 type oils and cal) be considered as a substitute for
CRC-L-20 test. \
