Lubricating gears

29-11-2019

There are many different types and sizes of gears, from small gears to large industrial gear transmissions. A gear slides and rolls against another gear, creating friction and allowing a machine to keep running.

The purpose of gears is to transfer rotational movement from one gear to another. Gear transmissions operate 24/7 under all kinds of conditions. A lubricating film between the gears prevents metal-to-metal contact and therefore reduces wear.

The teeth of a gear are under the heaviest load and will wear sooner or may even break. Unnecessary maintenance, machine downtime and replacement parts are very costly for a business. Lubricating gears is therefore essential.

Lindemann offers several types of lubricating greases, ranging from -40°C to +400°C.

Lubricating gear transmissions

Gear wear and damage can largely be prevented when open gears, gearboxes and worm gearboxes are lubricated with products such as greases and oils.

Lindemann lubricants and additives significantly reduce friction and protect seals and gaskets. Less friction results in lower temperatures and lower energy costs. In the long term, this can deliver substantial savings.

Lindemann lubricants adhere to surfaces and will not be pushed away. Blue-G grease retains its original consistency. It does not thicken or thin out because it is resistant to oxidation.

The extreme pressure and anti-wear properties ensure that Lindemann Blue-G Multi Purpose EP Grease provides long service life under high shock and load conditions, from low to very high temperatures.

Blue-G also contains Teflon / PTFE, which provides residual lubrication under the toughest conditions and further improves the extreme pressure characteristics of the grease.
