Effect of temperature on grease
Every 10-15°C increase in bearing operating temperature reduces the bearing life of grease by half; choose high-temperature grease and focus on the dropping point, evaporation, oxidation stability, high-temperature baking test and other properties of grease. When choosing low temperature grease, attention should be paid to similar viscosity and low temperature torque at low temperature. Effect of temperature on oxidation rate
