Roll bearing

Ester fluids are modified with additives in much the same manner as petroleum oils. They are stabili2ed with an oxidation inhibitor, eg, 0.5 wt % phenothia2ine. Improved load capacity for gears and rolling bearings in aircraft engines is provided by 1—5% tricresyl phosphate. Zinc...

Severe, highly localized metal loss on the roll bearing-retainer plate and associated attachment hardware is illustrated in Figs. 11.31 and 11.32. Figure 11.33 illustrates the arrangement of these components in a continuous caster roll system. Note the smooth surface contours at the edge of the plate. Close examination of these surfaces under a low-power stereoscopic microscope revealed fine, wavelike striations.

Wear. The life of rolling bearings ean be terminated, apart from fatigue, as a result of wear. The elearanee of a worn bearing gets too large. 

Therefore, wear ean be eonsiderably redueed by providing good lubrieation eonditions (viseosity ratio x > 2 if possible) and a good degree of eleanliness in the rolling bearing. Where x < 0.4 wear will dominate in the bearing if it is not prevented by suitable additives (EP additives).

Ball- and roller-bearing materials are commonly selected to provide a minimum Rockwell hardness of 58—60 Rc at load-carrying contacts (37,38). Below this level, fatigue strength drops so rapidly as to seriously impair the utility of a material for rolling bearings which involve contact stresses in the 700—2800 MPa (100,000-400,000 psi) range (39).
