Damage resulting from the removal of materials from surfaces in relative motion. Wear is generally described as:
: Abrasive: Removal of materials from surfaces in relative motion by a cutting or abrasive action of a hard particle, which is usually a contaminant. : Adhesive: Removal of materials from surfaces in relative motion as a result of surface contact. Galling and scuffing are the extreme cases. : Corrosive: Removal of materials by chemical action.
Industry:Machine tools
Bearing with inner ring extended on one or both sides in order to achieve greater shaft support and permit addition of locking device and provide additional space for sealing devices.
Industry:Machine tools
Axial slotted sleeve with cylindrical bore, tapered outside surface and male screw thread at large end. Used for mounting and dismounting (by means of nut) of bearing with tapered bore on cylindrical outside surface of shaft. Also called push-type sleeve.
Industry:Machine tools
An automotive bearing that is sold as an assembled set and is non-adjustable; characterized by a cone with no large rib.
Industry:Machine tools
Tapered roller bearings naturally align themselves as a result of the balance of forces on the bearing, keeping rolling elements moving smoothly in wheels and other automotive applications.
Industry:Machine tools
A torque wrench measures the amount of turning force being applied to a fastener (nut or bolt). Scales usually read in foot-pounds or Newton-meters.
Industry:Machine tools
A metal cap that fits over the outer end of the hub to keep grease in and dirt out of the bearing assembly.
