Abstract
An extreme-pressure lubricating composition is disclosed comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity having dispersed therein 1 to 60 weight percent of hydrated potassium borate microparticles having a boron-to-potassium ratio of about 2.5 to 4.5 and, optionally, from 0.01 to 5.0 weight percent of an antiwear agent selected from: (a) a zinc dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphate having from 4 to 20 carbons in each hydrocarbyl group; (b) a C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 ester, C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 amide, or C.sub.1 to C.sub.20 amine salt of a dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid having from 4 to 20 carbons in each hydrocarbyl group; or (c) mixtures thereof.
