Environmentally Friendly Pre-Lubricated Coupling

The Baldor•Dodge pre-lubricated GRID-LIGN coupling is  a lubed-for-life design that’s interchangeable with existing grids, hubs and covers. Easy to install and maintenance-free, it eliminates downtime associated with improper lubrication. The environmentally friendly product features high-performance synthetic oil impregnated in a polymer shell encapsu-lating the grid element. Acting as an oil reservoir, the polymer  helps to prevent the introduction of any contaminants during installation and does away with the mess associated with greasing a traditional grid design.

ASTM-Compliant Grease Sampling Kits

In June, ASTM issued Method D7718 - 11 entitled “Standard Practice for Obtaining In-Service Samples of Lubricating Grease.” In it, a method is outlined for obtaining trendable samples from motor-operated valves, gearboxes and more. With the Grease Thief sampling kits from MRG labs, users can develop sampling procedures consistent with the guidance in the practice, and ensure trendable analysis. Grease Thief samplers can be used with Kittiwake’s ANALEXfdMplus ferrous debris analyzer for rapid wear-level determination, while the Grease Thief Analyzer can give insight into wear, consistency, contamination and oxidation condition.

High-Performance, Synthetic Industrial Gear-Oil Family

ExxonMobil’s new Mobil SHC Gear Series is a line of high-performance, fully-synthetic industrial gear oils formulated to help general manufacturing and processing industries increase productivity and reduce costs by lowering energy consumption and extending oil drain intervals. Approved by Siemens for use in Flender gearboxes, these lube products, according to ExxonMobil, meet or exceed nearly every other major industry and OEM specification for industrial gearbox applications. The company notes that in statistically validated laboratory tests and field trials, these fluids exhibited energy savings of up to 3.6% compared with conventional oils.*

*Energy efficiency relates solely to the fluid performance when compared with conventional reference oils of the same viscosity grade in gear applications. The technology used allows up to 3.6% efficiency compared with the reference when tested in a worm gearbox under controlled conditions. Efficiency improvements will vary based on operating conditions and application.
