About this deal

It boasts a lengthy operational life even under relatively high temperatures while still being dispensable at low temperatures. The additives allow the lubricating oil to have properties that will enable the lubricant to function in the specific environment it will be put to work.

Pumpability suffers and machinery operation may become impossible due to torque limitations and power requirements.

They are being selected because of their high dropping points and excellent load-carrying abilities. Calcium sulphonates and polyureas are increasingly common grease thickeners not based on metallic soaps. So two unlubricated surfaces, for example the teeth of two interlocking gears, are slowed down by friction.

However, for extreme temperatures, a synthetic oil-based grease will offer better stability because it is much more resistant to heat. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Are you afraid of doing the wrong thing or do you simply prefer to outsource the maintenance of your machines to one of the most recognized industrial mechanics companies in Quebec? Grease is a semi-solid lubricant that is produced with a base oil as well as extra additives to give it the properties it requires. It can also be used on worn components, as it maintains thicker films in clearances enlarged by wear and can even extend the life of worn parts which were previously oil lubricated.

Nonsoap thickeners are also gaining popularity in special applications such as high-temperature environments. Some example sectors include mining and quarrying, steel, chemicals, paper and cement, where it can be used to lubricate components like open gears, sprockets, wire, racks, tracks, chains, ropes, slides and rollers. A soap/water lather may suspend the oil in the grease, forming an emulsion that can wash away or, to a lesser extent, reduce lubricity by diluting and changing grease consistency and texture. While grease and oil have similarities and can be interchangeable, they have their own use cases and there are times when lubricating oil is preferable over grease and vice-versa. It assigns a single multi-part code to each grease based on its operational properties (including temperature range, effects of water, load, etc.Lately, greases composed of “complex thickeners” are becoming increasingly popular because of their high dropping point and excellent loading capacity.

It’s ideal for metal-to-metal applications and has a higher melting point than calcium-based greases, but isn’t water resistant. Apiezon, silicone-based, and fluoroether-based greases are all used commonly in laboratories for lubricating stopcocks and ground glass joints. Grease maintains thicker films in clearances enlarged by wear and can extend the life of worn parts that were previously lubricated by oil.Solid additives such as copper or ceramic powder are added to some greases for static high pressure and/or high temperature applications, or where corrosion could prevent dis-assembly of components later in their service life.
