The objective of lubrication includes the reduction of friction between the rolling elements and the rolling surfaces, prevention of pitting, reduction of wear, and the prevention of rusting by forming a film over the surfaces. To maximize the performance of a linear system, a lubrication method and a lubricant appropriate for the operating environment should be selected.
Methods of lubrication include oil lubrication and grease lubrication. For oil lubrication, turbine oil conforming to ISO standard VG32-68 is also recommended.
For grease lubrication, lithium soap based grease is recommended. A rust preventative oil that does not adversely affect the lubricant is applied in a slide bush. The slide bush should be lubricated before it is placed into service. Products with raceway grooves, such as slide guides, are delivered pre-lublicated with grease and may be installed and used without further lubrication. Through operation lublicant is dispersed, so it is advisable to re-lubricate periodically based upon apprication usage. |

NB linear systems are precision, machined components and should be handled with care.
To preserve the accuracy and performance expected. Any shock load caused by rough handling (such as dropping or hitting with hammer) may cause a scar on the raceway which will hinder smooth movement and shorten expected travel life. To obtain best results, it is critical to ensure accurate installation. During installation misalignment should be avoided by taking into consideration parallelism of the system.
For a linear system to deliver its best performance, ensure that the housing, shaft, and guide rail mounting surfaces all have proper and accurate dimensions. |

| K grease is a low dust generation lubricant for linear systems that provides long-term and stable dust control. This particular type has very few impurities, yet its lubricating effect, contamination control, and rust prevention characteristics are equivalent to that of lithium soap grease. |
