ASTM D217 undisturbed penetration
Undisturbed penetration is defined as the penetration at 25°C (77°F) of a sample of grease in its container with no disturbance. Typical uses of the undisturbed penetration are: (1) to control the consistency of certain greases during manufacture, and (2) to assess the degree to which a grease develops ...
