Increased operating temperatures push oil toward the surface of the polymer material, supporting a constant supply of lubricant. When out of service, any excess lubricant will be drawn back into the polymer material.
With solid oil bearings, a large amount of oil is available (two to four times more than a conventional grease fill).
Solid oil polymer structure eliminates lubricant churn.
Solid oil is a high-quality synthetic oil that resists oxidation.
The solid oil does not wash away and fills nearly all remaining space within the bearing, thus limiting the entry of wet contaminants into the bearing.
Water is not compatible with oil or solid oil polymers.
Solid oil retains oil inside the bearing.
Integral bearing seals further improve oil retention.
The solid oil's close contact with the rollers and raceways greatly reduces the intrusion of contaminants.
Solid oil provides additional support to the integral bearing seal.
