Share:
East Hanover, NJ (March 14, 2007) - Anderol, Inc., a global manufacturer of specialty synthetic lubricants, today released a new grease selection guide. Aimed at helping maintenance and operations engineers with specific grease application needs, the brochure provides a step-by-step guide to selecting the most effective grease based on application requirements and OEM specifications.
Grease Selection
Choosing the right grease is critical to proper grease maintenance practices. Without the right grease a production unit can experience unscheduled downtime, requiring expensive component repair costs. For proper selection, several factors must be considered including the application criteria related to environmental and mechanical conditions as well as OEM specifications. However, OEM grease specifications often lack clarity, leaving maintenance engineers in need for more information and guidance to choose the grease that best suits their needs.
Valuable Information
Anderol's grease selection guide has been developed specifically for end users involved in maintenance, repair and operations. Written in easy-to-understand language, this brochure outlines valuable information through charts and illustrations making it a useful tool. It categorizes in-depth information on application criteria, an important determinant in grease selection, such as temperature, water and chemical resistance, speed, loads, food grade requirements and wire rope applications.
The brochure also covers advantages and disadvantages of a wide variety of thickener types including lithium, lithium complex, aluminum complex, calcium, silica and inorganic gels. This helps engineers understand the general characteristics of the product, and related compatibility issues which are critical to optimal performance and longevity of the equipment.
Additionally, the brochure features a comprehensive list of Anderol grease lubricants, which can be tailored to suit a variety of critical applications including food processing, bearings, automotive, cams & gears, hinges, packings, valves and wire ropes . While Anderol offers grease for most applications, the grease selection guide helps customers determine which grease is appropriate for their application requirements.
"The introduction of the grease selection guide demonstrates our commitment to educating and supporting our customers in tackling difficult production and maintenance challenges," says Wayne Sawyer, brands manager of Anderol. "The brochure provides a wealth of information on how Anderol products can increase productivity, extend equipment and lubrication life to maximize ROI."
