How to apply lubricants effectively

Historically lubricants used to be applied by hand, but modern machinery requires exact methods that can be precisely controlled. Here are some guidelines for applying lubricants for maximum results.

• Efficient operation of machinery largely depends not only on what type of lubricant you select but also on how you apply it.
• Lubricators are devices which help apply lubricant. They can be designed in a number of ways to apply liquid lubricants evenly and efficiently. Consult with your engineer or provider to see which products may suit your use case.
• Grease lubricants are semisolids and have a few key advantages. They resist being squeezed out, they can support heavy loads and they tend to prevent dirt or grit from entering between surfaces. It can be applied by forcing it through grease cups, pumped through a pressure gun or packed into enclosed parts.
