Bearings The Power of Knowledge Engineering
Seals and Bearing Lubrication Over the course of more than a century, SKF has specialized in five fields of competence and acquired
Units Systems a wide range of application expertise. We utilize this experience to provide innovative solutions to OEMs
and other manufacturers in practically all industrial sectors worldwide. Our five fields of competence are:
bearings and bearing units, seals, mechatronics (combining mechanical and electronic components to
Mechatronics Services improve the performance of classic systems), and extensive services from 3-D computer stimulations
and modern condition monitoring systems for high reliability to system management. SKF is a leading
global company and guarantees its customers uniform quality standards
and global product availability.
Important information on product usage

! All products from SKF may be used only for their intended purpose as described in this
brochure and the operating instructions. Should operating instructions be supplied together
with the products, they must be read and followed.
Not all lubricants can be fed using centralized lubrication systems. SKF can, on request, inspect
the suitability of the lubricant selected by the user for pumping in centralized lubrication systems.
Lubrication systems and their components manufactured by SKF are not approved for use in con-
junction with gases, liquefied gases, pressurized gases in solution, vapors, or such fluids whose vapor
pressure exceeds normal atmospheric pressure (1 013 mbar) by more than 0.5 bar at their maxi-
mum permissible temperature.
We expressly point to the fact that hazardous substances and mixtures in accordance with annex I
951-170-223-EN part 2-5 of the CLP regulation (EC 1272/2008) may be filled into SKF centralized lubrication systems
March 2016 and components and delivered and/or distributed with such systems only after consulting with and
obtaining written approval from SKF.
