Plastic gears are an indispensable part of modern machinery and equipment, and plastic gear grease is a necessity for its long-term efficient operation. However, many people will change the grease at will during maintenance or repair, or even use materials that are not suitable. This kind of behavior will bring irreparable damage to the machine, and even lead to safety accidents. Why can't plastic gear grease be replaced?Let's answer this question.
First of all, plastic gear grease is a high-tech product, and its performance and use methods have been scientifically designed and verified. Different greases differ in terms of chemical composition, thermal stability, viscosity, viscosity, etc. If it is not used in accordance with the design requirements, it will lead to the use of plastic gear grease will be reduced, and even cause gear wear, rust, cracking and other problems. And any of these problems can threaten the long-term operation and service life of the machine.
Secondly, there are chemical reactions between different plastic materials and different greases, which change their chemical properties. For example, some high-temperature greases can cause deformation or discoloration of plastic gears after contact with special plastic gears, which will affect their mechanical properties and aesthetics. In addition, some greases can break down or acidify, leading to corrosion and decay, further exacerbating the damage to plastic gears.
Finally, the use of plastic gear grease needs to follow specific standards and specifications. Different gear materials and working conditions require different greases to be used, or problems can arise. For example, gears that work under high temperature and high pressure conditions need to be selected with high temperature and high pressure grease, which has been professionally designed and tested to ensure its long-term effectiveness and safety. If grease is selected or replaced at will, it will lead to problems such as unstable gear operation, high noise, high energy consumption, and even machine failure and accidents.
In short, plastic gear grease is an important guarantee for the operation of the machine, and it cannot be replaced at will or used improperly. We should choose the appropriate grease according to the design requirements and working conditions, and follow professional standards and specifications in maintenance and repair. Only in this way can we ensure the long-term stable operation and safe use of the machine.
