SKF Bearing Grease and Its Uses

SKF is a quality brand with a long history in bearings and bearing greases.
LDT Vietnam would like to share more about SKF bearing grease in the article below.

  1. What are the uses of SKF bearing grease?


    SKF bearing grease – is a bearing lubricant for equipment, machinery and bearings, especially SKF bearings. Its high-temperature resistance helps systems operate well under the most demanding conditions.
    SKF grease also improves operating performance by minimizing corrosion and microcracks that cause impact and vibration during use.

Common SKF bearing greases

SKF bearing lubricating grease

SKF grease lubrication offers a wide range of features and uses. It is produced for specialized applications in industries such as: industrial and automotive bearing grease, specialty grease, high-temperature grease, high-pressure grease, biodegradable grease and food-grade grease.

The SKF greases most commonly used on the market include:

3.1 SKF LGMT 2 grease
This SKF bearing grease is a multipurpose product. It is widely used in automotive industry, agricultural equipment, vehicle wheel bearings and small electric-motor conveyors.
3.2 SKF LGMT 3 grease
SKF LGMT 3 multipurpose grease has a high consistency. It is suitable for bearings with a bore diameter greater than 100 mm, rotating outer rings, propeller shafts and machines with vertical rotating shafts. This product operates from -35°C to 120°C.
3.3 High-temperature grease – SKF LGHP 2 grease
This product is also known as bearing grease, high-temperature grease and operates at very high temperatures and speeds. It also provides rust protection and good water resistance.
In addition, SKF offers greases for specialized machinery, including: high-viscosity SKF LGEM 2, high-pressure SKF LGEP 2, wide-temperature-range SKF LGWA 2 and additive-enhanced EP SKF LGEV 2.
Each type of SKF bearing grease has different uses, so choose carefully for optimum equipment performance.

4. Applications of genuine SKF bearing grease
SKF grease products are popular because of their outstanding applications:

Applications of SKF bearing grease 4.1 SKF bearing grease removes contaminants
In addition to lubricating bearings, this product removes contaminants and resists wear at high speed, limiting impurities generated during operation.
Using grease also reduces hard-to-detect cracks caused by impact and vibration of components.

4.2 High-temperature SKF bearing grease
Through research and manufacturing improvements, lubricating grease SKF can meet the needs of machinery operating under different conditions. Its temperature resistance is well suited to applications across many industries.
SKF grease extends equipment life and minimizes maintenance and repair costs.

4.3 Ensures stable operation and high performance
Bearings are among the hardest machine components to access and are often missed during cleaning. Therefore, SKF bearing grease is an optimum solution for stable bearing operation.
SKF technologies and automatic lubrication systems minimize machine downtime and improve overall system performance.

  1. Precautions when using bearing grease
    To improve machine-component performance when using bearing grease, note the following:

– Apply the correct amount of bearing grease: Too much grease increases friction and temperature and wastes energy; too little cannot lubricate machine components. Use enough to fill one-third to one-half of the bearing free volume.

– Use the same grease type previously used in the system: Using another type can reduce dropping point, increase worked penetration and lower mechanical stability.

– If changing grease, clean all residual old grease from the lubricated component.

– Check the component for contaminants before applying bearing grease.

– Replace bearing grease at the recommended intervals.

– Do not store grease in wooden or paper containers, as it may be consumed or harden.

– Choose bearing grease suited to the system.
6. Where to buy SKF bearing grease?
Because SKF products are popular, many bearing-grease suppliers have appeared. Some customers discover counterfeit products only after use, so always choose an authorized genuine-grease distributor.
