Timken & IBT

The best bearing will fail if it is not properly lubricated. Proper lubrication requires the right amount of the right lubricant put in the right place.

But, the message must not be getting through to everyone. Research indicates that more than half of all bearing damage is related to inadequate or improper lubrication. Timken is doing something about it.

They have introduced a new series of grease guns and pumps. These are high-quality maintenance products that will help decrease both machinery downtime and operating costs.

Proper lubrication is critical to machine performance and component longevity. Timken's new lubricant-delivery devices enhance the operator’s ability to achieve greatly improved machinery productivity.

Timken's new product specifics include:

	Deluxe Series Lever-Type Grease Gun GRG1205 Made of tough, high-pressure cast iron which makes it unique in comparison to common pot metal or other die cast heads. Engineered to be easy to load, deliver grease evenly and withstand the hardest working conditions.
	Battery-Powered Grease Gun GRG1220 Powerful 18-volt rechargeable battery to grease more machinery in less time.  Packaged with an extra battery to further minimize down-time and reduce wait-time for battery recharge.
	Standard-Duty, High-Pressure 55:1 Grease Pump GRP300, GRP 302 & GRP 304 Handles all types of grease, up to and including National Lubricant Grease Institute (NLGI) 2, directly from 35-pound, 120-pound and 400-pound grease containers. Designed for portable and stationery systems that include pipe lines, hose reels and control handles. Highly efficient double-action pump design assures even flow of fluid, low noise level and low air consumption with built-in exhaust mufflers.
	Heavy-Duty, High-Pressure 55:1 Grease Pump GRP622 & GRP624 Handles all types of grease, up to and including NLGI 3, directly from 120-pound and 400-pound grease containers. Designed for applications with long dispensing lines where low pressure would limit pump performance. It is also optimum for cold weather conditions and severe-duty operations. Double-acting priming piston requires fewer cycles and produces less wear, thus increasing the life of the pump.

Kits are available for both the grease guns and grease pumps for hassle-free installation and operation. Grease gun kits include accessories and replacement parts. Grease pump kits include mounting adapters, drum covers and connecting hose installation hook-up kits.
