Consult EPT Mounted Bearing Tech Support for current grease specification.

Grease compatibility is critical. Relubricate with a grease that is compatible with grease supplied from the factory. Consult your grease supplier for compatibility.

Frequency of Lubrication

The tables below state general lubrication recommendations based on our experience and are intended as suggested or starting points only. For best results, specific applications should be monitored regularly and lubrication intervals and amounts adjusted accordingly.
