Lubrication & Hydraulics
Roll neck bearings are subject to high loads, high temperatures, as well as water ingress and other contaminates. Due to these challenging operating conditions, standard industrial greases typically will not provide suitable performance in these applications. Special lubricant properties are required to improve bearing performance under these conditions. This paper will cover the proper selection of lubricant properties, lubrication replenishment interval, as well as application features that aid in water and contaminate exclusion, such that roll neck bearing performance can be optimized.
