NBC Group’s technical team can also assist with lubricant selection, mounting accessories, remote installation kits and maintenance planning to ensure optimum performance from every GreaseMax installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a GreaseMax automatic lubricator?

GreaseMax is a self-contained automatic lubricator that continuously supplies grease to a lubrication point over a fixed operating period, eliminating the need for manual greasing.

How does GreaseMax work?

Once activated, a chemical reaction generates gas which slowly moves an internal piston, dispensing lubricant at a controlled and consistent rate throughout the selected service period.

What operating periods are available?

GreaseMax lubricators are available with dispensing periods of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, allowing lubrication schedules to be matched to equipment operating conditions.

Can GreaseMax be used outdoors?

Yes. GreaseMax units are designed for use in harsh industrial environments and can operate in wet, dusty, vibrating and even underwater applications when correctly installed.

Which industries use GreaseMax?

GreaseMax products are widely used across manufacturing, mining, quarrying, agriculture, food processing, water treatment, offshore, marine, renewable energy, construction and general industrial maintenance.

Can I choose different grease types?

Yes. GreaseMax offers a wide selection of grease formulations, including food-grade, high-temperature, heavy-duty, open gear and specialist lubricants, enabling the lubricator to be matched to the application.

Does NBC Group provide technical support?

Absolutely. NBC Group’s experienced engineers can recommend the correct GreaseMax lubricator, grease type, operating period and installation method to maximise equipment reliability and minimise maintenance costs.
