When it comes to lubricating high-speed, high-temperature applications, not all greases are created equal. Don’t risk equipment failure by settling for an inadequate lubricant.
The faster a bearing turns the more potential heat it generates. Some bearings can rotate up to 10,000 rpms. At that speed, you need a lubricating grease that is incredibly stable. If a bearing becomes unstable at that speed, it has a high likelihood of catastrophic failure.
Klüber Lubrication has created two lines of specialty lubricants – ISOFLEX and Klüberspeed – to handle your extreme conditions and keep your operation running smoother and longer.
1. ISOFLEX For more than 30 years, Klüber Lubrication has answered the need for speed with our line of ISOFLEX greases.
- Products: Isoflex NBU 15, Isoflex LDS 18 Special A,...
- Speed factor: over 1 million mm/min (Speed factor is a term that helps define the relationship of the speed at which a bearing rotates with the size of the bearing).
- These shear-stable greases hold a stable viscosity at low and high temperatures and high speeds,
- Ensuring a consistent performance and reduced power consumption.
2.KLUBERSPEED But as automotive and spindle tool manufacturers continue to push the limits of speed and temperature, lubricants need to advance at the same pace.
Enter the aptly named line of greases, Klüberspeed. While
ISOFLEX greases have a top speed factor of over 1 million mm/min, Klüberspeed greases have a top speed factor of over 2 million mm/min.
Built for the most extreme speed conditions, Klüberspeed greases offer the following benefits:
- Products: Kluberspeed BQ 74-73 N, Kluberspeed BF 72-22, Kluberspeed BFP 42-32, ...
- Speed factor: over 2 million mm/min
- Very good water resistance and an anticorrosive effect that protects bearings against premature failure and minimizes maintenance costs
- Long-term success at high speeds
- Shorter running-in of spindle bearings
- Low starting torque enables problem-free operation and energy savings also at low temperatures
When it comes to lubricating high-speed, high-temperature applications, not all greases are created equal. Don’t risk equipment failure by settling for an inadequate lubricant.
