Automotive lubricants are essential fluids developed to reduce friction and heat within the various components of vehicles, primarily engines. These specialized fluids ensure the smooth operation and longevity of automotive machinery. It serves as a protective barrier between moving parts, preventing direct metal-to-metal contact that can lead to wear and tear. It minimizes friction and heat generation by forming a thin, lubricating film between mechanical components, such as pistons, bearings, and camshafts. It also reduces wear and enhances fuel efficiency and engine performance. Moreover, lubricants aid in dissipating heat generated during combustion, preventing overheating and potential engine damage. It is available in various forms, including engine oils, transmission fluids, and gear oils, each developed for specific applications within a vehicle. For instance, engine oils are formulated to maintain engine cleanliness, reduce deposits, and provide anti-corrosion properties. Also, transmission fluids ensure smooth gear shifts and protect against excessive wear, while gear oils are tailored to the requirements of differentials and gearboxes.
