Key considerations when looking at employing grease

    Dec. 9, 2015

    The following information is relevant when recommending grease for an application:

    • What type of equipment needs lubrication (i.e. rotating bearing, non-rotating pin/bushing, two materials sliding on each other, etc.)?
    • Environmental conditions (hot, cold, dusty, wet, etc.).
    • If a rotating bearing, what is the rpm?
    • Carrying loads (heavy, light, impacts).
    • What does the equipment manufacturer recommend?
    • What access is available for greasing?
    • Is a long interval between greasing desired?
