How to choose a specialty grease

Choosing a specialty grease starts with the way a component works. OYES offers grease families for food-processing equipment, gears, bearings, electrical contacts and other applications. A useful enquiry connects the product choice to the operating conditions.

Describe the component and its materials

Share the equipment or part name, the surfaces in contact and any plastics, elastomers or seals involved. A drawing, photograph or current lubricant reference helps the team understand the application.

Record the operating conditions

Include the temperature range, speed, load, movement and environment. Note exposure to water or cleaning, noise requirements and any documentation or approval requirements relevant to the project.

Review a shortlist before testing

Compare product-specific information and request the relevant TDS or SDS. Evaluate a proposed lubricant on the actual component before confirming the grade for production.
