"Approximately 90 percent of all bearings are lubricated with grease but how much do you know about the grease or greased bearings in your plant? Grease analysis is certainly not for every bearing, maybe it's not even for most bearings. But when you have a need to know, a thorough analysis of the grease in question can prevent headaches and save money. "
