2. Grease fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_fitting

   Grease fitting on a bearing A grease nipple on the driver's door of a 1956 VW Beetle. A grease fitting, grease nipple, Zerk fitting, grease zerk, or Alemite fitting is a metal fitting used in mechanical systems to feed lubricants, usually lubricating grease, into a bearing under moderate to high pressure using a grease gun.

3. Ball bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_bearing

   Working principle for a ball bearing; red dots show direction of rotation. A four-point angular-contact ball bearing. A ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to maintain the separation between the bearing races. The purpose of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction and support radial and axial loads. It ...

4. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

   A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

5. Grease (lubricant) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_(lubricant)

   Grease is a solid or semisolid lubricant formed as a dispersion of thickening agents in a liquid lubricant. ... Red wheel bearing grease for automotive applications.

6. DN factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DN_Factor

   Once the DN factor of a bearing has been obtained, it can be used to consult grease selection charts in order to determine the correct lubricant. Viscosity must be matched to the needs of the bearing in order to obtain maximum efficiency, and to avoid lubricant runout due to overheating, which is a consequence of metal-on-metal contact, as well ...

7. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

   A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [1] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls, cylinders, or cones) between two concentric, grooved rings called races.
