Simalube Automatic Lubricators

How Simalube Automatic Lubricators work

Simalube Automatic Lubricators are self‑contained lubrication cartridges. Inside the unit, a gas‑generating cell builds pressure over time, steadily pushing lubricant from the cartridge to the lubrication point via a threaded connection or lubrication line.

Key features include:

• Adjustable discharge period (typically from 1 to 12 months, depending on size and model)
• Colour‑coded or graduated scale to set the lubrication duration
• Visual indication of remaining lubricant volume
• Simple screw‑in installation to standard grease nipples or lubrication ports

This design makes Simalube a straightforward retrofit option for many existing lubrication points.

Key Benefits

Consistent, controlled lubrication

Simalube dispenses lubricant continuously over a set period, helping to avoid both under‑ and over‑lubrication, which are common causes of premature bearing failure.

Reduced downtime and maintenance costs

Automated lubrication helps prevent dry running and contamination-related failures, cutting breakdowns and extending the intervals between interventions.

Less manual greasing

Once installed and set, Simalube units lubricate 24/7, reducing the need for frequent manual greasing rounds and freeing maintenance teams to focus on higher‑value tasks.

Improved safety

Simalube allows you to lubricate points that are difficult or hazardous to access manually, such as at height, behind guards or near moving machinery, without exposing operators to unnecessary risk.

Flexible sizes and settings

Available in multiple cartridge sizes and adjustable lubrication periods, Simalube can be tailored to a wide range of applications and lubricant requirements.

Suitable for grease and oil

Simalube can be filled with a variety of lubricants, including standard and special greases and oils, as well as food‑grade lubricants for hygienic environments.

Available in 5 sizes, simalube supplies various lubrication points with lubricant around the clock. Day in, day out – for up to one year.
