Selection notes

Choose gearbox viscosity for speed, torque and temperature. Confirm shaft seal arrangements and contamination controls. Do not use a coupling grease as a general motor-bearing grease.

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.
