Solutions for motor bearing lubrication 28/05/2025

Motor is a key driving component in the mechanical field, bearing is one of the most important parts of the motor, motor bearing grease is a key factor affecting motor performance and life. The selection of the correct motor bearing grease can greatly extend the service life of the motor bearing while also meeting the other special performance requirements of the motor.
The usual industrial or domestic motors are divided into AC or DC motors. Due to different application requirements, motors are usually used to select rolling bearings, sliding bearings, etc. The following solutions are mainly for motor bearing that use rolling bearings.
In the application of motor bearings (rolling bearings), Kluber special lubricants offer a wide range of lubrication options for different working conditions and operating conditions of motor bearings.

Here are three more common applications and typical cases:
  1. High temperature motor bearings:
High temperatures are a serious challenge for most high-speed motors and high-load motors, especially in the automotive and industrial motors. The high-temperature motor bearing grease sluice of Kluber specialty lubricants ensures long-lasting operation of the bearings at peak-hour extreme operating temperatures of 180 to 300 degrees C or higher (depending on the application requirements).

The Kluberlub and Kluberplex series of specialty lubricants can be applied to industrial motor bearings with a maximum temperature of less than 160 degrees C, and the Klubersynth series can meet the maximum operating temperature of 200 degrees C, Klubertemp, The BARRIERTA and Kluberalfa series can meet operating conditions with a maximum temperature of 300 degrees C.

Case: In the application of tunnel explosion-proof fans, the motor needs to operate at extremely high temperatures up to 600 degrees C, and the BARRIERTA L 55/2 of Kluber specialty lubricants can meet the high temperature life of 60 minutes of continuous operation at 600 degrees C.
  • BARRIERTA L 55/2
  • Klubersynth BHP 72-102
  • Klubersynth BMQ 72-162
  • Kluberplex BEM 34-132
       2. High-speed motor bearings:
High-speed motors are very common in industrial and household motors, such as high-speed electric spindles, vacuum cleaner motors, high-speed axial fans and so on. For bearings of different sizes, Kluber special lubricants use the concept of "speed factor" to measure the speed of bearings:
Speed Factor = Bearing center diameter (mm) X bearing speed (rpm)

Kluberspeed series, ISOFLEX series, Klubersynth series, ASONIC series and Kluberquiet series can meet different operating conditions under the speed factors from 70,000 n x dm to 2,300,000 n x dm and even higher speed factors ensure that your motor bearings last for a long time at high speeds.
Case: vacuum cleaner motor, 608 bearings, 40000 RPM, using ASONIC Q 74-73 to operate continuously at 150 degrees C or more.
       3. Low noise or low torque motor bearings:
Micro-motors are playing a key role in every aspect of our lives. To better reduce its noise and achieve energy savings, Kluber Special lubricants are designed for energy-efficient motors with low noise and torque.

The Kluberquiet and ASONIC series of Kluber specialty lubricants can effectively reduce the noise of precision motor bearings at high speeds and high temperatures, while the ISOFLEX TOPAS series and the Klubersynth series are better suited to the likes of power tools, start-up motors, Micro stepper motor and other low torque, high load, high temperature and other requirements, reduce the motor energy consumption.

Case: Automotive ABS brake motor bearings use the Klubersynth HB 72-52 to operate safely at very low ambient temperatures with very low starting torque, ensuring the safe braking performance of the car in harsh winter environments.
The technical requirements for bearing grease vary widely from motor to motor. Kluber specialty lubricants focus on the differences between the same applications, providing the most realistic technical lying solution for your motor bearing lubrication!
