zsírzást
Zsírst, also known as "greasing" in English, refers to the process of applying a lubricating substance, typically a grease or lubricant, to a surface or component. This is done to reduce friction between moving parts, prevent wear and tear, and protect against corrosion. Greases are generally semi-solid or solid lubricants composed of a base oil, a thickener, and various additives. The thickener gives the grease its consistency, while the base oil provides the lubrication. Additives can enhance properties like extreme pressure resistance, water washout, or oxidation stability.
The application of zsírzás is crucial in many mechanical systems, including engines, bearings, gears, and joints.
