A risk-aware transition strategy For risk-averse organisations in particular, switching viscosity testing methods can appear daunting. Refusing to switch, however, can represent the bigger risk, as legacy methods become increasingly mismatched with today’s production volumes, compliance expectations, and workforce limitations.


By choosing methods already validated by SAE standards, and by partnering with instrument providers that offer long-standing application expertise, labs can mitigate the risk of such a shift, without compromising accuracy or regulatory alignment.


Anton Paar’s support goes beyond instrumentation. Our application specialists help integrate new workflows, train users, and provide documentation to support method validation and audit readiness. For more than 25 years, we’ve supported some of the most demanding labs in the lubricant and petrochemical industries.

Conclusion: A modern solution for a legacy challenge ASTM D7042 and ASTM D2983 (Procedure D) are not experimental – they’re mature, standards- approved methods for high and low-temperature viscosity testing already trusted by leading lubricant labs worldwide. Adopting them does not mean introducing risk; it means managing it.


With proven instrumentation, expert support, and global industry trust, Anton Paar enables your lab to move forward confidently, and on your terms.
