INFORMATION SHEET
LO 1. IDENTIFY TYPES OF LUBRICANTS/COOLANTS
Title: IMPORTANCE OF LUBRICANTS/COOLANTS
Importance of Lubricants/ Coolants
The lubrication system is extremely important to engine

service life because it forces oil to high friction points in the engine.
Without a lubrication system, friction between parts would destroy an
engine very quickly. Many of the engine parts would rapidly overheat
and score from this friction. Engine bearings, piston rings, cylinder walls
and other components could be ruined.
1. Reduces friction and wear between moving parts.

2. Helps transfer heat and cool engine parts
3. Cleans the inside of the engine by removing contaminants
(metal, dirt, plastic, rubber, and other particles).
4. Cuts power loss and increases fuel economy.
5. Absorbs shocks between moving parts to quite engine
operative and increase engine life.
This illustration shows the movement of the oil inside the

engine gallery.

INFORMATION SHEET No. 2
Types of Lubricants
ENGINE OIL
Engine oil, also called motor oil, is used to produce a

lubricating film on the moving parts in an engine. It is commonly
refined from crude oil or petroleum which is extracted from deep
within the earth. Synthetic oils (manufactured oils) are also
available. They can be made from substances other than crude oil.
An oil film (thin layer of oil) separates engine parts to prevent
metal-on-metal contact.
When selecting oil for an engine it is important that the one

chosen is suitable for the engine itself and the conditions under
which it will be used.
Two important factors determining the choice of oils are:

a. That the oil meets the quality requirements
b. That the oil has the right “thickness” or what we call
the right VISCOSITY.
This learning element explains what is meant by viscosity

and how the oils are graded according to their viscosity.
3
The term viscosity refers to the relative thickness of a liquid.

It’s a thin, free-flowing liquid has a low viscosity and a thick,
slow-slow-flowing liquid has a high viscosity.
The viscosity of a liquid changes when the temperature

changes. At high temperature the liquid (oil in this case)
becomes thinner (lower viscosity) and at low temperature the
liquid becomes thicker (higher viscosity)
The correct oil viscosity is essential for the efficient operation

of the engine because:
- When the oil is too thick (high viscosity) it

causes resistance and much more power is
needed to turn the engine, making it difficult to
start when cold.
4
- Thick oil does not circulate freely enough during

the starting period, causing insufficient
lubrication of the bearings and, consequently,
increased wear
- Oil which is too thin, combined with a high

engine temperature and a heavy load presents
the risk of oil being pressed out from between
the working surfaces of the bearings or other
engine parts.
- And this would cause the oil film which is

essential to the proper lubrication of the engine
to break down. Furthermore between the piston
rings and the cylinder.
This is most significant characteristic of lubricating with its

viscosity. This can be measured in different ways. One way, for
instance, is to check the quantity of oil which passes through a
tube of standard size during a certain length of time and at a
given temperature.
5
POWER TRAIN AND RUNNING GEARS OIL
Most gear oil is a mineral oil refined from crude oil. Some
gear oil is manufactured or synthetic oil. Chemical additives are
mixed with gear oil to improve its load carrying capacity. This
makes an extreme of heat on oil viscosity and foaming, rust,
corrosion, and oil-seal damage.
The gear oil used in many cars and trucks is relatively thick
and has a viscosity ranging from SAE 75W to SAE 140. Multi-
grade gear oils such as SAE 75W-90, are also used. However,
some manufacturers specify synchromesh transmission fluid (STP)
for manual transmissions and transaxles.
GREASE
This is a fluid suck as mineral oil (made from petroleum)

thickened with an agent that makes it a semi-solid. The
thickening agent that is a metallic soap or non-soap substance
such as clay. Soaps commonly used are lithium, calcium, sodium,
aluminum and barium. Each of these alone or in combination
gives the grease characteristics. Aluminum gives the grease good
adhesion. Sodium gives the grease a thick, fibrous appearance.
A good grease must have consistency, stability, oxidation,

resistance, ability to protect against friction, wear and corrosion,
and feed ability. This is ability to flow through dispensing
equipment such as wheel bearing, universal joint, ball joint, and
chassis fittings.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
SERVICE RATINGS OF OIL

Oil is rated by viscosity number and also by its service designation.
This is kind of service for which the oil is best suited. There are six
service ratings for spark-ignition-engine lubricating oils, SA, SB,
SC, SD, and SF. There are four service ratings for compression-
ignition-engine lubricating oils, CA, CB, CC, and CD.
1. SA Oil This oil is for utility gasoline and diesel engines

operating under mild conditions, so protection by additives is
not required. This oil may have pour-point and foam
depressants.
2. SB Oil This oil is for service in gasoline engines operated
under such mild conditions that only minimum protection
by additives required.
3. SC Oil This oil is for service typical of gasoline engines in the
1964 to 1967 models of passengers’ cars and trucks. It is
intended primarily for use in passenger cars. This oil
provides control of high and low-temperature engine
deposits, wear, rust and corrosion.
4. SD Oil This oil is for service typical of gasoline engine in
passenger cars and trucks beginning with 1968 models. This
oil provides more protection from high- and low- temperature
engine deposits, wear, rust and corrosion than do SC oils.
5. SE Oil This oil is for service typical of gasoline engines in
passenger cars and some trucks beginning with 1972 (and
some 1971) models. This oil provides more protection against
oil oxidation, high temperature engine deposits, rust, and
corrosion than do oils with the SC and SC ratings.
6. SF Oil SF oil is for service typical of gasoline engines in
passenger cars and some trucks beginning in 1981 models.
This oil provides more protection than SE oils against
sludge, varnish, wear, oil-screen plugging and engine
deposits.
Notice that this is an open-end series. When the car

manufacturers and oil producers see the need for other types of
oil, they can bring out SG and SH service-rated oils. SA and SB
oils are not recommended for use in automobile engine. These
8
are nondetergent oils. Detergent oils are required in modern

automotive engines.
Diesel-engine oils must have different properties than oils for
gasoline engines. The CA, CB, CC, and CD ratings indicate
ample, CA oil is for light-duty service. CD oil is for severe-duty
service typical of turbocharged high-output diesel engines
operating on fuel oil with high sulfur content. Oil for use in
automotive diesel engines should be marked SF/CC or SF/CD.
Now, we have a wide range of oil viscosity from very thin oil,
SAE 5W up to thick SAE 50 oil. Every SAE grade represents an
oil suitable for use within a special range of temperature and for
certain type of engine as follows:
- Oils within the viscosity grades SAE 5W, 10W

and 20W are suitable for use in climates with
temperatures ranging from very low to moderate.
- SAE 20 and SAE 30 are suitable for use in

moderate to hot climates.
-
- SAE 40 and SAE 50 are mostly for use in old

engines designed for rather thick oil or in badly
worn engines with high oil consumption.
However, many engines are operated in climates where the

temperature varies considerably from season to season.
9
- in addition, it is always preferable for any engine

to run on low viscosity oil during the starting
period when the engine is cold, on high viscosity
oil when the engine is hot and fully loaded.
- For practical reason it is not possible to use a

low viscosity oil for starting and then change to
an oil of higher viscosity when running.
Oils are available with a very wide viscosity range, for

example 10W/50, which can be used in any climate.
- it is also an advantage for the engine when SAE
10W/50 is used because it enables that cold
engine to start on a thin (10W) and when hot, on
a sufficiently thick oil (SAE 50).
A general technical designation for oils has been accepted as

follows:
- single grade oil which only covers one SAE grade
(e.g. SAE 30)
-
10
- double grade oil which covers two consecutive

SAE grades (e.g. SAE 20W/30).
-
- Multi-grade oil which covers three SAE grades

(e.g. SAE 20W/30).
- Super multi-grade oil which covers more than

three SAE grades (e.g. SAE 15/50).
The oils covering more than one SAE grades are often
referred to s multi-viscosity, all season or all-weather oils. Bear
in mind that SAE grades only tell you the viscosity of the oil and
not the quality.
Now, how would you select the oil with the right SAE
number corresponding to the temperature and running
conditions.
11
The correct way is, of course, to check what is recommended

in the specifications for the engine.
- all oil producers have worked out, together with
the engine manufacturers, recommendations for
the oil viscosity most suitable for given
conditions.
It is important to know that the SAE grades only give

information on the viscosity but not the quality of the oil. For
the quality classification see reference book (Automotive
Technology by: James E. Duff p.488

PRECAUTIONS: Be careful of hot oil. It can cause painful burns.
SAFETY MEASURES IN HANDLING LUBRICANTS
Lubricants that are not properly handled can become

contaminated with dirt, water and other fluids, reducing the service lives
of the lubricant and the equipment and possibly causing equipment
failure
Proper oil storage is the first step to preventing contamination. Oil
should be store in closed containers that keep airborne particulates and
moisture out. According to Jim Morrison, field technician with Petro-
Canada America Lubricants, Inc., it can be a costly mistake to store oil in
open containers or allow drums to be partially open to air. “Air is
extremely dirty, therefore, you must never allow oil to get exposed to it,”
he says.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS IN APPLYING LUBRICANTS
Wear eye protection at all times when in the shop area.
Oil and filter change require that the vehicle be safely raised and
supported. If using safety stands or ramps to support the vehicle, also
block any wheels remaining on the ground. This will prevent the vehicle
from moving backwards.
18
Use caution around hot surfaces such as exhaust manifolds,

pipes, and mufflers. Hot oil draining from the oil pan or oil filter can
cause burns and skin irritation.
Always refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s shop manual for specific

procedures.
