The Bosch Rexroth LUBRICATING UNIT 55 (R161952500) is a specialized maintenance component designed to enhance the longevity and performance of profiled rail systems. This front lube unit, tailored for ball rail systems, ensures that ball runner blocks are consistently lubricated, allowing for travel distances of up to 5,000 km without the need for relubrication. The unit is particularly beneficial as it only requires initial lubrication with grease and can be refilled either through the lube nipple on its endface or at the side, making maintenance straightforward and minimizing downtime. The LUBRICATING UNIT 55 is compatible with various sizes of Bosch Rexroth's profiled rail systems, including Size H and Size K. It boasts a low lubricant loss feature which translates into reduced oil consumption over time. The unit's design eliminates the need for lubrication lines and focuses on delivering lubricant directly where it is needed: on the running tracks and top surface of the Ball Guide Rail. This precision ensures optimal functioning of the system components and contributes to overall efficiency. Constructed from a special plastic material, this front lube unit comes in different configurations; some models like R... are pre-filled with Mobil SHC oil while others are shipped empty to be filled according to user requirements. It operates effectively within an operating temperature range up to 100°C and has been engineered to ensure tight sealing against contaminants. This accessory is essential for users who require reliable linear motion guidance with minimal maintenance intervention. Its innovative design significantly extends intervals between required lubrications, thereby supporting continuous machine operation in various applications where profiled rail systems are utilized.
