Girth gear drives

Reliable lubrication for large girth gear drives

Large girth gear drives keep everything in motion for rotary tube kilns in cement plants or tube mills in coal-fired power plants. The right lubricant is vital for reliable operation of these important installations and components.

Klüber Lubrication has developed a special lubrication system to ensure optimum lubrication of large girth gear drives and to prevent damage starting from the outset: The A-B-C system.

The A-B-C-System developed by Klüber Lubrication makes life easier for operators in the heavy industry and provides reliability right from the start. Klüber Lubrication supplies transparent or graphite-containing adhesive lubricants as: A - primers for initial lubrication, B - running-in lubricants and C - operational lubricants, making available a lubricant system based on expert knowledge and long-standing experience as well as tribological research and development work.
