When to use a lubricant?

A lubricant is a substance that when applied to a component of an item of machinery, helps to reduce friction, heat, and wear between the solid surfaces that are in contact with each other. Through the use of appropriate lubricant, the friction and wear of materials can be controlled and therefore provide a reliable operation and contribute to less service downtime and money spent on maintenance. SKF offer a multitude of lubricants to match your requirement, these range from grease lubricants, lithium lubricants to oil lubricants and industrial lubricants.
