An in clined-plane apparatus was used in obtaining static friction data for various lubricants with different metal combinations. Special lubricants, s uch as ch lorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons, were compared with a reference mineral oil. The effect of additives, s uch as graphite, molybdenum di sulfide, zinc oxide, boron nitride, and an oxidized petroleum compound, was investigated. Metal combinations involving stainless steels, carbon steel, cast iron, aluminum alloy, and chromium plate we re used.
