Standard Test Methods for Cone Penetration of Lubricating GreaseMore info
1.1 These test methods cover four procedures for measuring the consistency of lubricating greases by the penetration of a cone of specified dimensions, mass, and finish. The penetration is measured in tenths of a millimetre.
Note 1: The National Lubricating Grease Institute (NLGI)2 classified greases according to their consistency as measured by the worked penetration. The classification system is as follows:
NLGI | Worked Penetration Range, |
000 | 445 to 475 |
00 | 400 to 430 |
0 | 355 to 385 |
1 | 310 to 340 |
2 | 265 to 295 |
3 | 220 to 250 |
