What are the disadvantages of lubrication?
Answers
Disadvantages of lubrication :
1》If the wrong lubricant is applied or used, the functions are unlikely to be carried out efficiently - which can result in seizure, overheating, damages.
2》Lubricants need to be regularly replaced. Anyone who has worked with any sort of lubricants will know that lubricants are dirty, smelly stuff, especially after being used for a while.
3》Disposal of lubricants has to be done well to prevent serious environmental contamination. Used lubricants are likely to contain metals, coagulated or charred hydrocarbons, and possibly other forms of environmental and health toxins. If not disposed off properly, these can contaminate ground soil and underground water tables.
4》Burning used lubricants will release toxic fumes into the air.
5》Storage or service life is limited, Higher coefficient of friction and wear than hydro dynamically lubricated bearings.
