Engine Lubricating Oil

Engine lubricating oil is a type of oil that is specifically designed to lubricate and protect the moving parts of an engine. It falls under the supply class "Oils And Greases: Cutting, Lubricating, And Hydraulic" in the supply group "Fuels, Lubricants, Oils, And Waxes".

Engine lubricating oil is essential for the proper functioning of an engine as it reduces friction between the moving parts, prevents wear and tear, and helps to dissipate heat. It also helps to seal gaps between the piston rings and cylinder walls, preventing combustion gases from escaping and maintaining compression.

There are different types of engine lubricating oils available, such as mineral oil, synthetic oil, and semi-synthetic oil. The choice of oil depends on factors like the type of engine, operating conditions, and manufacturer recommendations.

Regular maintenance and oil changes are necessary to ensure the engine's longevity and optimal performance. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding the type of oil to use and the recommended oil change intervals.

Overall, engine lubricating oil plays a crucial role in keeping the engine running smoothly and efficiently, reducing friction, and protecting against wear and tear.
