Material compatibility
Lubricants must generally be compatible with the following materials:
steel, grey iron, brass, copper, aluminium
NBR, FPM, ABS, PA, PU
Ageing of lubricants
After a prolonged downtime of the machine, the lubricant may no longer be suitable for use due to chemical or
physical ageing and must therefore be inspected before the system is recommissioned. We recommend in-
specting the lubricant already after a downtime of one week. If you suspect the lubricant is no longer suitable,
replace it prior to recommissioning and, if necessary, perform the initial lubrication manually. It is possible for
lubricants to be tested in the company's laboratory for their suitability in being pumped in centralised lubrica-
tion systems (e.g. no "bleeding"). Please contact SKF if you have further questions regarding lubricants. An
overview of the lubricants tested by SKF is also available upon request.
