The SKF LAPT flexible tube is an 8 x 6 mm line used to connect automatic lubricators to lubrication points. Its function is to carry lubricant from the dispensing unit to the bearing, guide or chain that needs continuous lubrication. It is a key part in centralized lubrication systems, where flexibility allows it to adapt to runs with curves and vibrations. At MR Accesorios Industriales we sell it as part of our grease and lubrication line for industry.

The SKF LAPT tube is identified by its base code LAPT followed by a number that indicates the length or the roll format. In the examples LAPT 1000 and LAPT 5000, the final number refers to the number of millimeters or the roll format. The designation does not include additional letters, so the full part number is made up of the series and the number. To make sure it is the correct replacement, send us the exact part number shown on the lubricator or in the equipment manual.

This tube is used in industries such as food, cement, mining, paper and aggregate processing, where there is equipment with multiple lubrication points that are difficult to access. It is also common in production plants that have conveyor chains, fans, pumps and bearings in remote areas. In Argentina, many plants choose automatic lubrication systems to reduce downtime and maintain constant dispensing. The flexible tube allows lubricant to be carried without having to disassemble structures.

To select the correct tube, check the outer and inner diameter required by your lubricator. The SKF LAPT has an 8 mm outer diameter and a 6 mm inner diameter, a standard size in many systems. It is important to check compatibility with the equipment's fittings and connectors. When installing it, avoid tight bends that could obstruct flow and secure the ends with the appropriate clamps. Cleaning the circuit before connecting prevents particles from contaminating the lubricant.

As for equivalents, other manufacturers of lubrication systems offer flexible tubes with similar dimensions, but the part numbers and materials do not always match. Therefore, the safest approach is to go by the dimensions and the type of connection. If your original equipment uses an SKF LAPT tube, you most likely need that same part number to maintain warranty and performance. Ask us if you have doubts: we can help you identify the part based on the dimensions.

If you need to replace the flexible tube of your automatic lubricators, send us the part number that corresponds to your equipment on WhatsApp. At MR Accesorios Industriales we quote you and advise you so the lubrication system keeps running without interruptions. We also check whether the tube is compatible with other components of your equipment. Write to us and we will reply shortly.
