Carry away the heat produced in bearing

Prevent metal-to-metal contact and reduce friction

Prevent entry of foreign material i.e dust, dirt etc. in the bearing

Provide a cushion to a load and shocks

No change in viscosity due to variation in temperature

Reduces friction between machine parts

Takes up the surface pressure between sliding parts

Becomes thicker after prolonged use
