Bearing Lubrication

An Introduction to Oil and Grease Lubrication of Rolling Element Bearings
 
Summary

If rolling bearings are to operate reliably they must be adequately lubricated to prevent direct metal-to-metal contact between the rolling elements, raceways and cages. The lubricant also inhibits wear and protects the bearing surfaces against corrosion. The choice of a suitable lubricant and method of lubrication for each individual bearing application is therefore important, as is correct maintenance. This article provides an overview of grease and oil lubrication for rolling element bearings, which includes supply systems and example lubricant selection cases based on the LubeSelect program.
