EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 12925-1 testing. ISO 12925-1 specifies the specifications for the C family (gears) for lubricants, industrial oils and related products in Class L. This standard concerns lubricants for closed gear systems only. Lubricants for open gears and greases for gears (closed or open) are excluded.
Lubricants for gear systems are used in a wide variety of gear designs, from simple parallel spur gears to bevel gears (spur or helical), worm gears and hypoid gears. Open type or closed type industrial gear systems range from small closed systems used in machine tools to very large systems used in mining, steel mills and cement plants.
This standard was first published in 1996 and covers the lubricants currently applied in the most common closed gear systems in the industry. Since the first edition (ISO 12925 -1), the requirements for lubricants for closed gear systems have changed drastically to suit new gear technologies and applications. More stringent requirements have arisen regarding extreme pressure properties, foaming and deaeration properties. In addition, the need for environmentally acceptable products has emerged.
In a product line of any of the categories, toxicity requirements do not have to be tested on all grades of a line using the same additive package and the same base stock range. The test can be limited to the lightest, medium and heaviest grade of the line.
