- Grease is regarded as “black magic” by people who are not famliar with the technology
- Grease is an “easy” way to lubricate applications where oil systems are not possible.
- The tickener of a grease acts as a sponge
– Pressure will release the oil
– Oil will lubricate (not the thickener, except for calcium sulphonate)
– Additives help to maintain lubrication under difficult circumstances
