When you don't correctly grease your motor bearings according to the motor manufacturer's specifications (including the proper type of grease and specified greasing schedule), terrible things can happen. Some of those terrible things may include bearing failure leading to overheating, excess vibration, excessive wear and tear, and even total critical motor failure. Yikes!

2002 Silverado. Im not a mechanic but i can usually figure most things out on my own. I can do things like my brakes, rotors, regular maintenance, oil changes, spark plugs etc. Is a wheel bearing pretty easy, meaning like just remove a few screws and pop the new hub in. Or is it more complicated than that and I should just take it to a mechanic?

Why do you have to grease industrial motors? It's a pretty simple question with a pretty simple answer. You have to grease your industrial motors because if you don't, things will go wrong. Very, very wrong.

So, let's do a quick recap. Motor failure is bad. Motor failure (however we choose to define it) is a result of improperly greasing critical motor bearings. Therefore, improperly greasing your motors is bad. Simple, right?

So now that we know why we need to grease motor bearings, how can we make sure we include "greasing the motors" as part of our preventive maintenance strategies.

Although the answer is as simple as the question, it's essential to know why things are the way they are. That's why we're diving into one of the simplest, but most important (and often overlooked) preventive maintenance tactics in this blog.

Grease lubricates ball and roller bearings in your industrial motors to reduce friction, protect from dirt and debris, and also acts as a coolant by transferring heat from the metal bearings.

When it comes to maintaining and extending the life of your critical motors, a little lube goes a long way. Proper lubrication of essential motor bearings ensures that your machines run, well, like well-oiled machines!

You're probably familiar with the old saying, "it worked like a well-oiled machine," right? Well, that didn't just come out of nowhere (like that thing about raining cats and dogs)!
