Stop sweating the CLS exam!
Lubrizol K2M in cooperation with the STLE has developed a NEW series of seven online programs to help you.
This program covers many facets of bearings, from their design and physical make-up to their care and proper handling. We will look at ways of supplying the proper lubricant to these bearings, preventing and analyzing wear patterns, as well as ways of monitoring your lubricant and health of your equipment.
