Revised Standard from Last Update.

1. SCOPE

1.1 This standard prescribes the requirements and the methods of sampling and tests for greases, graphite and use for general service under comparatively high load, low speed or low relative displacement of inter-acting surfaces requiring lubrication.

1.2 Greases covered in this standard are not intended to be used in ball and roller bearings.
