Scope

This part of IS0 12156 specifies a test method using the high-frequency reciprocating rig (HFRR), for assessing the lubricating property of diesel fuels including those fuels which may contain a lubricity-enhancing additive. It applies to fuels used in diesel engines.

NOTE It is not known if this test method will predict the performance of all additive/fuel combinations. Additional work is underway to further establish this correlation and future revisions of this part of IS0 12156 may be necessary once this work is complete.
