Lubrication matters. But do you know how much?
Lubrication matters. But do you know how much?
Correct bearing lubrication is an essential step in reaching the bearing’s service lifetime. 50% of premature bearing failure is the result of poor lubrication and/or contamination. Incorrect lubrication will cause both high maintenance costs and health & safety issues due to slippery work floors or hard-to-reach places.
It is important to select grease suitable for the bearing’s application, and to apply the correct quantity before commissioning the bearing.
During operation, the bearing will require periodic relubrication. The right quantity of the right grease applied at the right intervals is essential to achieving optimum bearing performance and maximum service life.
Using manual relubrication methods is common practice; however, continuous relubrication offers many advantages. Continuous relubrication can be performed by using automatic lubricators, which provide a more consistent, accurate and contamination-free grease supply.

SKF Grease meter LAGM 1000E
The amount delivered per stroke by grease guns depends on many variables. It is generally difficult to supply an accurate quantity of grease when manually lubricating bearings. The right amount of grease, however, is critical for the bearings’ service life, as over- or under greasing can result in machine breakdown.
