Bearings sliding contact type

One very important alloy for machine hearings is Babbitt metal, invented by the American Isaac Babbitt (1799-1862). In present-day usage the term is applied to a whole class of silver-white bearing metals or white metals . They are composed primarily of tin, antimony and copper, such as for instance 90% Sn, 6% Sb and 3% Cu. This alloy is used in situations with sliding contact under pressure. Its bearing properties are favored by the fact that hard components of the type CuSn and SbSn are formed and embedded in the soft tin matrix. [Pg.945]
