1. Reducing friction: The main function of lubricating oil is to reduce friction between
moving parts. This helps to reduce wear on the components and prolong the life
of the machinery.
2. Cooling: Lubricating oil helps to dissipate heat generated by moving parts, which
can help prevent overheating and damage to the machinery.
3. Cleaning: Lubricating oil can help to remove dirt, debris, and other contaminants
from the surfaces it contacts, which can help to prevent wear and damage to the
machinery.
4. Sealing: Lubricating oil can help to seal gaps between moving parts, which can
help to prevent the ingress of dirt, water, and other contaminants.
5. Rust prevention: Lubricating oil can also help to prevent rust and corrosion on the
surfaces it contacts, which can help to prolong the life of the machinery.
