How to prevent the reducer from rusting

As the reducer is mostly made of steel, if you do not pay attention to maintenance during use, the machine is easy to be oxidized and rusted after a long time of use, which will greatly reduce its service life. To this end, we can take the following measures to prevent rust.

1. The rust of the reducer is mainly caused by the presence of oxygen and water in the lubricating oil. The corrosion is caused by the acid and sulfide in the oil. We can add anti rust additives and preservative additives to the oil to avoid rust.

2. Inject lubricating oil into the friction surfaces between moving parts to form an oil film to prevent metal to metal contact, reduce wear and prevent the anti rust layer from falling.

3. Keep the reducer surface clean and dry.

4. A layer of metal that is not easy to rust is coated on the reducer surface by electroplating, hot plating and other methods to form a dense oxide film, so as to prevent the reducer from rusting due to direct contact with water, air and other substances.

Rust will seriously affect the service life of the reducer and reduce its efficiency. Therefore, it is recommended to take the above rust prevention measures before use to ensure that the reducer can be used for a long time.
