Optimised Lubrication for Maximum Bearing Performance

The right lubricant does far more than reduce friction. It extends bearing life, improves reliability, reduces operating temperatures, and protects against contamination and corrosion.

At CeramicSpeed, we offer carefully selected lubrication solutions designed to match your application, operating conditions, and performance requirements.

Why Lubrication Matters

Lubrication is one of the most important factors in bearing performance.

Selecting the correct lubricant helps maximise service life, minimise maintenance, and ensure stable operation under demanding conditions. An unsuitable lubricant can significantly reduce bearing life, increase operating temperatures, and lead to premature failure.

Whether your application operates at high speed, under heavy loads, in food processing environments, or in chemically aggressive conditions, choosing the right lubrication solution makes a measurable difference.

Choosing the Right Lubricant

Every application has different requirements. Selecting the correct lubricant depends on several operating parameters.

Temperature

The lubricant must match the bearing's operating temperature. Using a lubricant outside its intended temperature range will reduce lubrication performance and can significantly shorten bearing life.

Load & Speed

Operating conditions determine the required oil viscosity.

• High loads and low speeds require higher viscosity.
  
• Low loads and high speeds perform best with lower viscosity.
  

If you're unsure which lubricant is right for your application, our engineers are ready to help.

CeramicSpeed SLT

Maintenance-Free Lubrication

CeramicSpeed SLT is our proprietary solid lubrication technology.

A polymer matrix saturated with lubrication oil continuously supplies lubricant to the bearing while preventing moisture and contaminants from entering.

Ideal for:

• Severe particle contamination
  
• Wet environments
  
• Splash water exposure
  
• Pharmaceutical applications
  
• Chemical processing
  
• Food production
  
  

Benefits

• Relubrication-free operation
  
• NSF H1 food-grade approved
  
• Excellent contamination protection
  
• Reduced maintenance
  
• Extended bearing life
  

SLT combines particularly well with stainless steel rings and CeramicSpeed silicon nitride balls to create an exceptionally durable bearing solution.

CeramicSpeed SlipCoat

When Lubrication Isn't an Option

Some applications simply cannot tolerate oil or grease contamination.

CeramicSpeed SlipCoat is an innovative coating technology developed for applications where conventional lubrication is not possible.

The coating enables bearings to operate without liquid lubricant while maintaining long operating life, making it ideal for clean and sensitive environments.

Typical applications include:

• Clean production environments
  
• Pharmaceutical equipment
  
• Laboratory systems
  
• Food processing
  
• Sensitive manufacturing processes
  

Key Features

• Lubrication-free operation
  
• FDA and EN1935 compatible coating
  
• Chemically inert
  
• Transparent and colourless
  
• Available for virtually any ball bearing configuration
  

SlipCoat opens new possibilities for applications where even the smallest amount of lubricant cannot be accepted.
