How does lubicus help to reduce friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by various means. Here are some:They form a layer between surfaces that are moving with respect to each other that keeps those surface from contacting each other. The lubricant keeps the surfaces apart.The lubricant washes away particles that might cause friction between the surfaces. It acts as as cleanser.Some lubricants harden the surfaces of the parts they are lubricating to make them less subject to wear.
