Grease gives longer life for automotive parts

A Kluber Lubrication GB product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Dec 11, 2006

With Klubersynth BR 46-82, Kluber Lubrication has overcome the gap between seemingly irreconcilable objectives: a powerful low- and high-temperature grease for drive-by-wire components in cars.

Absolute reliability of performance is a must for any safety-related component in cars.

This requirement does of course extend to the lubricants they contain.

Developing a lubricant for future-oriented technologies, such as one that meets expectations like 20 years of service life, thermal stability up to 180 C, with still much higher peaks, as well as an excellent pressure absorption capacity, poses quite a challenge in a sector of industry where pricing is also a sensitive issue.

With Klubersynth BR 46-82, Kluber Lubrication has overcome the gap between seemingly irreconcilable objectives: a powerful low- and high-temperature grease for drive-by-wire components in cars.

The silicone-free special grease can cope with permanent temperatures of 180 C, and short-term peaks up to 250 C, while also ensuring smooth running at temperatures far below zero.

Further characteristics of this newly developed product are good wear protection in steel/steel friction pairings, compatibility with EPDM and miscibility with brake fluids.

Klanduuml;bersynth BR 46-82 is therefore a first-choice product when it comes to the long-term lubrication of numerous components such as ball screws, rolling bearings, vertically mounted needle bearings and gears.

It allows several lube points of a component like the brake unit to be made fit for the future with a single grease.
