A gas-driven single-point lubricator from the SKF SYSTEM 24 line delivers grease to one lubrication point on a continuous, controlled basis. Instead of greasing by hand on a schedule, you mount the unit on the bearing, guide, chain or spindle and let it work. Each lubricator arrives already filled with SKF grease, and the suffix in the designation tells you which one is inside: HB2 for LGHB 2, WA2 for LGWA 2, and FG for a food-grade grease. It suits points that are hard to reach or that need frequent re-greasing.

Reading the designation is straightforward once you know the parts. LAGD is the code for this single-point automatic lubricator family. The figure after it, as in LAGD 125/WM2, refers to the reservoir size or capacity. Everything past the slash is the pre-filled grease: HB2 means LGHB 2, WA2 means LGWA 2, and FG means a food-grade grease. That last part matters most, since greases are not interchangeable across load, temperature and speed conditions.

You will find these units in food and beverage plants, cement works, mines, paper mills and water treatment facilities, among other operations. Typical mounting points include conveyors, fans, pumps, mixers and packaging machinery. They also fit wherever the lubrication point sits at height, in a cramped space, or where taking the line down to grease by hand is not an option. Because the lubricator is disposable and comes pre-filled, there is no grease handling and less chance of contamination.

Selection comes down to the working temperature, the component being lubricated, the load and the speed. The grease has to be compatible with whatever is already in the lubrication point; if it is not, clean out and re-fill before fitting the device. Installation is on the inlet thread, with the outlet positioned as recommended. Follow the tightening torque and check for leaks afterward. How long the lubricator lasts depends on the temperature and the flow rate you set.

On equivalences, SYSTEM 24 lubricators are identified by the complete designation, capacity and grease type included. Do not swap one model for another on size alone, because the grease suffix has to match the application. If your point needs a different grease, ask which alternative SKF offers in the same category. When comparing against other brands, look at the drive type, the capacity and the grease, then confirm compatibility with the lubrication point.

If you already know the part number of the lubricator you run, send it to MR Industrial Accessories by WhatsApp or email and we will quote it. We can also help you pin down the correct grease suffix for your application and suggest equivalents where they exist.
