Aerospace bearing and gear alloys.

From: Advanced Materials & Processes | Date: July 1, 1998| Author: | Copyright information

Future generations of aircraft engines and transmissions will require the use of high-temperature gear and bearing alloys that exhibit high surface hardness for wear resistance while simultaneously maintaining a core with excellent fracture and impact resistance and ductility. Existing alloys exhibit both good characteristics and flaws, however. Latrobe Steel Co. has developed two new stainless steel alloys to satisfy the future requirements for such materials. Its innovative alloys are evaluated.

High-temperature bearing and gear alloys for the next generation of aircraft engines and ...
