Where Mining reliability programs run into trouble
Three issues we hear most from mining maintenance and reliability teams.
Manual greasing isn't scaling
Maintenance teams can't hand-grease every bearing on a 24/7 fleet. Missed points become bearing failures, become unplanned shutdowns.
Particulates everywhere
Mine dust contaminates oil reservoirs, gearboxes, and hydraulic systems faster than rated change intervals account for.
Extreme temperature swings
Pit operations see -40°F to 120°F+ in a single year. Standard lubricants and breathers aren't engineered for that envelope.
Solutions for mining operations
Application-level guidance with the products that solve them.
Automatic Lubrication Systems
Centralized systems pump grease from a single reservoir through metering valves to dozens of bearing points on a programmed cycle. Armor distributes the pumps, controllers, distribution valves, and tubing that build them.
Read moreContamination Control
Contamination is the leading cause of premature bearing and hydraulic failures. Armor distributes the breathers, filters, and isolation hardware that keep particulates and water out of your reservoirs.
Read moreCondition Monitoring
Bearing failures don't happen overnight — they generate weeks of warning signs in the vibration spectrum. Armor distributes the portable analyzers and continuous monitoring tools that catch them before unplanned downtime hits.

Which automatic lubricator is best for haul-truck wheel bearings?
Haul trucks have too many grease points for a single-point unit to be efficient — multi-point centralized systems with a reservoir-mounted pump and progressive divider valves are the typical architecture. Reservoir size and pump duty cycle are sized off the bearing count, the relube interval, and the operating temperature envelope. Send the truck make and model and we will spec it.
Are desiccant breathers compatible with synthetic oils?
Yes. Desiccant breathers capture atmospheric moisture from the air the reservoir is breathing in — they do not interact with the oil chemistry inside the reservoir. Mineral, synthetic, biodegradable, and PAG fluids are all compatible. The variable to size around is reservoir volume and breathing rate, not the oil itself.
How quickly can you ship for an unplanned shutdown?
Armor stocks fast-moving SKUs in US warehouses. In-stock items ship fast — for critical-path parts, call before 12pm CT.
