More than 80 pages of the new publication are devoted to thegeneral range of Self-Lube bearings, covering everything frombearing materials and bearing types, sealing, shaft lockingarrangements, mounting instructions, tolerances and protectiondevices.
Also covered in detail are NSK's Silverlube, Molded Oil andLife-Lube products.
Silver-Lube is a range of corrosion-resistant bearing unitsspecifically for use in industries where frequent thoroughwashdowns are necessary, optimum hygiene standards are required,and good chemical resistance over a wide temperature range isimportant.
Molded Oil bearings in the Self-Lube range are mounted in stainless steel housings .
They provide superior resistance to corrosion, compared to standardseries cast iron units.
Molded Oil bearings are lubricated with NSK's own oil-impregnatedmaterial consisting of lubricating oil and polyolefin resin, whichhas an affinity for oil.
Oil is released on demand from this material, providing amplelubrication for the bearing over extended periods.
As a result, troublesome oil refilling is not required, andcontamination of the surrounding environment is avoided.
Molded Oil technology also features in the Life-Lube range, whichcombines the corrosion resistant properties of Silver-Lube housingswith the excellent properties of the solid lubricant .
Life-Lube bearing units are specifically for use in industrieswhere contact with water and process fluids is unavoidable,excellent chemical resistance is required, and extended lubricationlife is necessary. Request a free brochure from NSK UK ...
