Eco-compatible multi-purpose grease for rolling and plain bearings
10 May 2016
Excellent performance even with high temperatures
Munich, 7 April 2016 – Rolling and plain bearings in cranes, fairleads, winches and
rudder systems of ships are often exposed to extremely harsh environmental
conditions. Thus, the requirements to be met by the lubricants used for the bearings
are very high. With Klüberbio BM 32-142, Klüber Lubrication developed a high
performance lubricating grease for such maritime applications. The new multipurpose
grease complies with the requirements of Environmentally Acceptable
Lubricants (EAL) as defined in Appendix A of the 2013 Vessel General Permit and
can therefore also be used for components in contact with sea water.
"Our new high-performance lubricating grease contains special additives which
reduce wear, protect against corrosion and enable smooth operation even at
extremely low temperatures", explains Dirk Fabry, Business Development Manager
Marine at Klüber Lubrication. "Moreover, its readily biodegradable base oil ensures
high environmental compatibility. This makes Klüberbio BM 32-142 a real
multipurpose product for the marine industry."
The new grease can be used in a wide temperature range from minus 40 °C to plus
120 °C. Besides its excellent corrosion and wear protection, the new operational
lubricant offers a very good load-carrying capacity, thus extending the components'
service life and maintenance intervals.
