What Does BOCLE Stand For?

BOCLE stands for Ball On Cylinder Lubricity Evaluator

BOCLE, or Ball On Cylinder Lubricity Evaluator, is an advanced testing instrument designed to assess the lubricating qualities of various fluids under simulated operational conditions. By utilizing a ball-on-cylinder configuration, BOCLE accurately measures friction and wear characteristics, providing essential data for the development and evaluation of lubricants in automotive, industrial, and aerospace applications. This tool helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of machinery by determining the effectiveness of different lubricating formulations.
