LUBRICATING OILS (CRUDE & REFINED) Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Lubricating oils, both crude lubricating oil and refined lubricating oil, are petroleum based fluids used to reduce friction, control heat, and protect mechanical components in engines and industrial equipment. Crude oils may contain impurities, while refined oils are processed to improve stability and lubrication performance. In systems where these oils contact O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components, compatibility should be evaluated to prevent swelling or degradation of sealing materials. Proper storage, handling procedures, and the use of appropriate PPE are recommended to ensure safe operation.
