Greases and lubrication

How you lubricate a bearing largely decides how long it runs. This line covers greases, kits, spare parts and accessories for bearings, guides, chains and grease fittings, whether you grease by hand during routine maintenance or run an automatic system. Start with three inputs: the type of motion and its speed, the operating temperature, and the surroundings (water, dust or heavy load). Those define the grease and how it gets applied: by hand, through a single-point lubricator or from an automatic line.

SKF part numbers in this line pair a prefix with an item name. In LT/ICN-220, LT/REP BCN-200 or LT/KITGATILL200, the LT/ prefix groups lubrication system items, and terms such as KIT and REP inside the part number flag kits and spare parts. The number at the end separates sizes or versions, which is why the item name by itself is not enough: you need the full part number to know which part it is.

On the plant floor these items support upkeep of electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, fans, conveyors and machine tools. Where there is water or frequent washdown, the grease must resist water; at high speed, RPM and temperature set the limit; and where many points need frequent greasing, a centralized system cuts down on rounds and keeps points from being skipped. A sound program also checks grease compatibility, since mixing greases with different soap bases can break down the lubricant.

We quote SKF greases and lubrication systems. Send the full part number, such as LT/INREP BCN-200 or LT/KIT SOP PARED RAM-B, or tell us the equipment, the lube point and the operating conditions, and we will find the matching part number. Contact us by WhatsApp or email for a prompt reply.
