Good to be Green
SKF have developed Green Grease, a new biodegradable, low-toxicity LGGB 2 - a more environmentally friendly alternative to standard (toxic and non-biodegradable) lubricating greases which can be used across a wide range of applications. A major stumbling block in industry's uptake of biodegradable lubricants was that they were considered unsuitable for bearing lubrication. The Green Grease meets SKF's stringent criteria for bearing grease and, following tests, they have approved it for steel-on-steel spherical plain bearings, ball bearings and roller bearings.
