Specialist Open Gear Grease for Mining and Cement
Choosing the right open gear grease
Operating for long hours, under extreme loads, in high temperatures and dusty environments, ongoing wear is a significant challenge for open gears. This can lead to unplanned downtime and reduced equipment life 鈥 creating a barrier to effective operations and the potential need for costly replacement.
Leading mining and cement companies use advanced grease technology and technical inspections to help prevent open gear failure, optimise service life and ensure the smooth running of their operations.
