Selecting the correct lubricants for TBM components is crucial for ensuring their reliable operation and extending their lifespan. Load and speed requirements are primary considerations. High-load, low-speed components require lubricants with high viscosity and extreme pressure (EP) additives to prevent metal-to-metal contact. High-speed, low-load components need lubricants with lower viscosity to minimize friction and heat generation. Operating temperature influences lubricant selection. High-temperature environments require lubricants with high ther....
