Water, dust and shock loads are challenging operating conditions for a lubricating grease. Chemical interaction with water can lead to a loss in structure and excessive oil separation for conventional lubrication concepts. The consequence is reduced performance with shorter lubrication intervals, increased grease consumption, higher risk for unexpected downtime and increased wear on machine components as a result.
Klüberplex BE 91-222 is a high-performance grease designed for these conditions. The innovative thickener concept provides excellent sealing properties, even when exposed to water, vapor, and contaminations. It has enhanced protection against wear/extreme pressure and can handle high loads and start/stop behavior.
The usage of a lower viscosity grease with maintained wear protection leads to reduced thermal stress on the lubricant, especially at high rotation speeds. This gives the grease a longer grease lifetime and optimized lubrication consumption.
