Slipperiness; instability; as, the lubricity of fortune.

The "smoothness" of a fuel which affects wear-and-tear on the engine. The higher the lubricity, the easier a fuel can move through an engine, resulting in longer engine life. Lubricity is measured as "kinetic viscosity." Biodiesel is known for its lubricity.

Smoothness; freedom from friction; also, property which diminishes friction; as, the lubricity of oil.

Refers to the frictional characteristics of thread as it passes through the sewing machine and into the seam. Good lubricity characteristics will minimize thread breakage and enhance sewability. A thread with a fibrous or fuzzy surface will have superior lubricity characteristics.

Capacity to reduce friction.

drilling term – the lubrication properties of a given material. Certain drilling mud additives improve the lubricity in a borehole.

ability of an oil or grease to lubricate.
