Lubrication
For every industry, lubrication is vital to the performance of rotating equipment; when over 40% of maintenance cost are related to poor lubrication, proper management is crucial. The right quantity of the right lubricant applied at the right intervals is essential to achieving optimum application performance and maximum service life.
Together, SKF and Lincoln combine more than 300 years of experience in managing lubrication and reducing friction. And with our pioneering RecondOil process technology for uncompromised industrial oil regeneration, you can reuse your oil over and over again.
No matter where in the lubrication management journey you are, with SKF you can boost the performance that matters to your business. Find out how.
Product types
Lubricants
Poor lubrication accounts for over 36% of premature bearing failures. SKF lubricants are designed for your needs and tested for performance in real applications.
Lubricators
Automatically supply a small quantity of clean grease or oil to a lubrication point on a regular basis, thus improving bearing performance.
Manual lubrication tools
The SKF manual lubrication tools are specifically designed and selected to support lubricant storage, handling, dosing, labeling, analyzing and applying lubricants.
Automatic lubrication systems
Centralized automatic lubrication systems are an effective way to increase machine availability while reducing reliance on scarce talent. These systems provide the appropriate lubrication quantity at the correct intervals, minimizing friction and wear and optimizing bearing and machinery service life.
Lubrication system components
An automatic lubrication system consists of a pump with reservoir, a controller, metering devices, hose and fittings and accessories.
