Chevron's Lubricants University, an online training resource offering information on technologies and trends in the lubrication and maintenance industry, announced that archived issues of Lubrication magazine are now available free of charge on its site - www.LubricantsUniversity.com.
Lubrication magazine, a trusted source of information for almost a century, has published nearly 1,000 issues since 1911. The magazine has a history of providing in-depth knowledge and analysis of the lubricants industry, with each issue presenting a thorough look at a subject of interest. With a large portion of the Lubrication archive now available online, interested parties are able to research a particular lubrication area from previous years to increase understanding of the changes in additive chemistry, manufacturing and equipment maintenance.
"By making past Lubrication issues available online, we have created a central area for lubrication research to thrive," said Virginia Moser, training coordinator, Chevron Products Company. "Our site is a resource for maintenance and lubrication professionals to increase their knowledge regarding the development and application of lubricants. The addition of this extraordinary resource increases the value of the experience we offer to our users and gives new life to one of the most respected, and historically significant, publications in this market."
Over 650 issues of this valuable industry resource, dating back to 1920, have been made available on the Lubricants University web site. Lubrication practitioners and maintenance and reliability personnel worldwide now have access to decades of in-depth articles on a wide variety of lubrication-related topics. The archived issues are indexed by five- or 10-year increments for easy reference and research purposes.
A wide range of topics are covered in the archived issues of Lubrication, including the lubrication of industrial bearings, the characteristics and uses of grease, diesel tractor lubrication and the lubrication of underground mining machinery. Specifically, issues covering topics like used oil analysis could be valuable for some certification exams like those offered by the Society of Tribology and Lubrication Engineers (STLE).
The Lubrication archives are available free of charge, to anyone visiting the Lubricants University web site. Articles are available in PDF format and can be viewed online, printed or saved from the web site.
