NSK bearings will encounter various problems during use. Today we will find out how to test the deterioration of NSK bearing grease.
Grease is very critical in the use of NSK bearings. If a deteriorated grease is used, it will not only function as it should, but it will also damage the NSK bearing.
1 Oil flow observation method
Take two measuring cups, one of which is filled with the lubricating oil to be inspected, the other is placed on the table, and the measuring cup filled with lubricating oil is lifted off the table 30-40 cm and tilted to allow the lubricating oil to slowly flow to the empty cup. In the middle, observe the flow, the quality of the lubricating oil flow should be slender, even, continuous, if the oil flow suddenly and slowly, and sometimes there is a large flow, then the lubricant has deteriorated.
2 manual method
The lubricant is rubbed repeatedly between the thumb and the index finger. The better lubricant feels lubricated, less wear debris, and no friction. If you feel a large friction between the fingers, it means lubricating oil. There are many impurities inside, can not be reused, should be replaced with new lubricants.
3 lighting method
On a clear day, use a screwdriver to pry the lubricant at a 45-degree angle to the horizontal. Observe the sunlight and observe the oil droplets. Under the light, it can be clearly seen that there is no wear debris in the lubricating oil, which can continue to work. If the grinding debris is too much, the lubricating oil should be replaced.
