Bearings with Solid Lubrication

Bearings with solid lubrication are manufactured under the NTN brand (SolidGrease) and the SNR brand (LubSolid). They require a special grease, solidified after injection in the bearings, which can retain a greater quantity of oil than standard grease, as required for the lubrication of the bearing during operation.

• No service
  –Reduced, or even zero, servicing
  –Less servicing for inaccessible bearings
• Resistance to contamination
  –High performance in dusty and/or humid environments
  –The use of sealed bearings is recommended for applications
  with high levels of contamination. This type of lubrication
  can be used to improve bearing sealing
• No grease leakage
  –No grease leakage and low oil leakage:
  guaranteed clean operation
• Excellent resistance to centrifugal forces, vibrations and low-scale oscillations
  –Lubricant is in the form of a solid mass, ensuring: excellent
  resistance to centrifugal forces from the amount of oil
  necessary for satisfactory operation
• Low start-up torque
  –“SPOT PACK” type bearings: very low start-up torque at ambient temperature
