LUBExpert Case Study: 70% of bearings are still OVER lubricated

Bearings need grease, however… 

It’s a common misconception that if a little grease is good then a lot means better. WRONG!

Too much grease will overheat a bearing causing separation of the oil from its thickener and will begin to run out of the bearing. This can set off a chain reaction resulting in lack of lubrication & hardening of the thickener which left unchecked will cause major issues.

Many studies have shown that only 33% of the open space within a bearing needs to be filled to achieve optimum friction reduction. 

33%? How do you that?

ALS Global (Australia’s largest condition monitoring service provider) conducted an independent study over an 18 month period using the LUBExpert. The device was used across a large volume of grease lubricated bearings which were historically replenished using fixed calculated / time based rates.

Find out why ALS now choose the LUBExpert as their preferred method of lubrication. Download the full case study below.
