Synthetic Grease Lubricates in Heavy-duty Bearings
Shell Lubricants has developed a state of the art fully synthetic grease to increase productivity and reduce downtime in heavy-duty bearings operating in harsh and challenging environments. Shell Stamina HDS, will also support operators looking to maximise the performance benefits of switching from open to clean sealed (filled for life) bearings, due to its excellent anti-wear performance which can extend lubrication intervals.
Shell Stamina HDS has been created using a combination of the latest technology thickeners, high-quality additives and base stock oil, giving outstanding service life and resistance to problems such as 'heat soak'.
It is especially suitable for heavy-duty, slow moving plain and rolling element bearings operating in the severe environments found in the steel, paper and chemical industries.With its dedicated team of technical experts, Shell is able to work in close partnership with customers to implement a customised lubrication management regime, which maximises the benefits of switching to Shell Stamina HDS.
An ongoing relationship involving regular plant surveys ensures that customers benefit from the full performance and efficiency characteristics associated with this latest high-performance grease.
Tim-Oliver Mattern, Shell's Global Metals Sector Marketing and OEM Manager, is working closely with customers who are turning to Shell Stamina HDS.
'This is an exciting product in our lubricants range and it is proving to be a great success'.'The superior properties of the grease are helping our customers to overcome some long-standing production issues and to experience significant productivity and efficiency improvements'.'For example, conditions such as 'mill chatter' and 'work-roll peeling' in steel production mills can damage the working surfaces, which has an adverse affect on the rolled product'.
'The enhanced performance characteristics of Shell Stamina HDS provide a lubrication solution to address problems associated with the milling process'.It is ideal for use in sealed or semi-sealed work roll and continuous caster bearings'.
The grease resists chemical deterioration from heat and oxidation, and demonstrates excellent anti-wear properties.It resists water wash-out and prevents rust, even in the presence of cooling water.Shell Stamina HDS is fully synthetic to achieve longer grease and bearing life, and is free from lead and nitrate.By generating less waste, Shell Stamina HDS also reduces the environmental impact.
