Selection notes
Check bearing oil flow, filters, drains and water contamination at each dryer cylinder. Where gearing shares the circulation circuit, use the approved paper-machine oil rather than assuming a separate gear oil. Confirm seal and grease compatibility.
Product families for technical selection, not a direct interchange chart. Confirm the exact grade, current UAE product data sheet, OEM approval and lubricant compatibility before use.
