    I Need Some Spindle Bearing Grease!

    I'm getting ready to replace the spindle bearings in my DynaMyte 2400 mill (10K rpm spindle) and I need a small amount (< 10cc) of grease for the new bearings.

    I thought the bearings would be prelubed, but have since learned that they have only a light coating of protectant.

    The lubricants listed below are all compatible with my needs.
    If anyone has some leftover from a bearing job I would greatly appreciate hearing from you!

    Barden G-75
    Timken Ultra High Speed Spindle Grease
    Kuberspeed BF 72-22
    FAG Arconal L-75
    FAG Arconal Speed 2.6
    Lubecon High Speed L252
    SKF LGCT 2


    Thanx,

    Rex

    Get klubber NBU15. All world should have it, and good bearing houses will to. It comes in a small tube, about 15 bucks. Enough to do that spindle 5 times. Too much grease creates heat and damage new bearings. NBU is used on every high speed spindle I've ever done, and that's quite a few.

    You are right Kluber NBU 15 is the ideal spindle grease. The downside is it is very expensive and sometimes hard to source. We are Brit-Lube a UK based specialist grease mfr. We have a direct alternative to NBU 15 - our grease High Speed DN Plus. They are very similar in formulation and performance. We can save you 50% on your Kluber prices and can ship anywhere worldwide swiftly.
