High Temperature Grease Maintenance & Usage Tips to Extend Equipment Service Life

Even with high-quality high-temperature grease, incorrect usage and unscientific maintenance will greatly reduce lubrication effect and cause premature grease failure. Mastering standardized usage and maintenance skills can maximize the performance of high-temperature grease, extend equipment life and reduce long-term operating costs for industrial enterprises.

1. Thoroughly Clean Old Carbon Deposits Before Refueling

After long-term high-temperature operation, the interior of bearings and gear cavities will accumulate hard carbon residues and deteriorated old grease. Directly adding new high-temperature grease will cause contamination, resulting in accelerated aging of new grease. It is necessary to thoroughly clean residual sludge and carbon deposits before filling new grease to ensure pure lubrication environment.

2. Control Reasonable Filling Amount

Excessive grease filling will cause poor heat dissipation in high-temperature equipment, resulting in grease heating, thinning and oil leakage. Insufficient filling will lead to incomplete oil film coverage and dry friction. The optimal filling amount is 1/2 to 2/3 of the bearing cavity volume, which balances lubrication and heat dissipation.

3. Strictly Prohibit Mixing Different Types of High-Temperature Grease

Lithium complex, polyurea, bentonite and PFPE greases have different thickener formulas. Mixing different high-temperature greases will cause chemical incompatibility, grease stratification, failure of anti-oxidation and anti-carbon functions, and even accelerated equipment wear.

4. Regular Inspection and Timely Replacement

High-temperature working conditions accelerate grease aging. Regularly check grease color, fluidity and carbon deposition status. If the grease turns black, hardens or produces granular residues, replace it immediately to avoid latent equipment failure risks.

5. Standard Sealed Storage

Unused high-temperature grease should be stored in a cool and dry place, sealed and kept away from high-temperature exposure. Long-term open placement will cause oxidation and moisture absorption, reducing original high-temperature resistance and anti-carbon performance.

Standardized use and maintenance can maximize the value of high-temperature grease. Our high-quality heat-resistant grease with stable formula helps your equipment run efficiently and stably in high-temperature environments all year round.
