#STLEConnect is the hashtag we will be using on social media from July 2025 to June 2026 to highlight how STLE connects people, knowledge, and industries across the tribology and lubrication engineering community. This also connects to one of the domains in the new STLE Strategic Plan.
We encourage the STLE community to actively use #STLEConnect throughout the year while participating in STLE activities, educational events, industry partnerships, and community outreach.
Duration
July 2025 – June 2026
