Grease Drop Point Apparatus

About Grease Drop Point Apparatus

The Grease Drop Point Apparatus is a precision laboratory instrument used to determine the drop point of lubricating grease. The drop point is the temperature at which the grease transitions from a semi-solid to a liquid state under controlled heating conditions, indicating its upper temperature limit for application.

The apparatus consists of a heating bath, test cup, thermometer, and support assembly. The sample is gradually heated, and the temperature at which the first drop of melted grease falls is recorded as the drop point.

This equipment is widely used in lubricant testing laboratories, petrochemical industries, automotive sectors, and research institutions for quality control and performance evaluation of greases.
