Techni-Tip: Anti-Friction Bearing Lubrication

A ball or roller bearing, in most applications, will have adequate lubrication if the grease level is at one-third to one-half the capacity of the housing space. A greater amount will be discharged and wasted.
Where low torque is a requirement, bearings may be lubricated with a very small amount of grease.
Where speed is very low and bearing is exposed to dirt or moisture, the bearing may be packed nearly full.
High speed and high temperature usually require more frequent greasing than normal.
Don't overfill bearings. The lubricant will ooze out of overfilled housing, collect dirt and cause trouble.
Too much lubricant can also cause overheating. This is particularly true of high-speed bearings.
Store grease in clean, covered containers.
Handle grease with clean paddles or grease guns.
