Stop Grease Hazards

Share

SKF released two devices from its Lincoln brand: One to prevent grease overflow and another to keep contaminants from affecting grease. The mechanical grease overflow prevention system thwarts grease spills associated with reservoir overfilling. The device is made of steel and anti-corrosion plating to withstand operating temperatures between -40 and 65.5 degrees Celsius (-40 to 150 degrees Fahrenheit) in addition to pressures of up to 517 bar (7,500 psi), the company says. The small grease reservoir filling filter minimizes entry of contaminants into automatic lubrication systems during filling. It has a fill rate of up to 8 liters per minute and withstands operating pressure of 344 bar, SKF notes. Both products can be used in mining, industrial, agricultural and off-highway construction equipment. Web: www.skf.com
