Over-greasing raises temperature
Excess grease increases churning and seal pressure. Quantity should match bearing size, speed, housing free space, and replenishment method.
Water and dust change grease life
Mining, ports, rain, washdown, and dusty roads shorten intervals and increase corrosion and abrasive wear risk. Improve sealing and clean refill practices.
Use condition feedback
Combine schedules with temperature, vibration, ultrasound, visual inspection, and grease condition. Adjust intervals from evidence rather than adding more grease.
