How do I choose the right grease for our machines?
Response:
When choosing the right lubricating grease for your machines, there are several factors to take into account:
- What type of applications/machines should the grease be used for?
- What working temperature and speed do the machines reach?
- Which consistency of lubricating grease is ideal for your particular machines/applications?
Grease contains 80-90% base oil. The base oil can consist of either mineral oil or synthetic base oil, which one is suitable for your business depends on the load, working temperatures and the speed of the machines. As a rule, synthetic base oil can handle somewhat higher temperatures and loads than mineral oil can.
