Choosing the Right Lubricants for Industrial Equipment

The correct lubricant supports machine efficiency, reduces wear and contributes to longer equipment service life.

The correct lubricant supports machine efficiency, reduces wear and contributes to longer equipment service life.

01

Lubrication Is Part of Equipment Reliability

Lubrication plays an important role in reducing friction, controlling wear and supporting the operating life of mechanical components.

Using an unsuitable lubricant can reduce the effectiveness of the lubrication system even when maintenance intervals are followed correctly.

02

Consider Operating Conditions

Equipment speed, operating temperature, load, environmental conditions and manufacturer requirements should all be considered when selecting lubricants.

Maintenance teams should also control contamination and storage practices to protect lubricant condition before use.
