Bench-level tribological experiments were utilized to evaluate material, coating, and lubricant formulation effects on the loss-of-lubricant survivability of tapered roller end and cone rib contacts. Cone rib and roller end contacts were simulated using a single rotating roller and rotating flat disk. The applied load and rotational speeds of the roller and disk were controlled to simulate representative rotorcraft gearbox bearing operating conditions. The contacts were lubricated for an initial period before the lubricant supply was shut off, and the supply tube was then removed. Tests continued to run, without additional oil, until the measured friction force reached a predetermined cutoff value. Weibull-based statistical analysis was used to compare the loss-of-lubrication runtimes.
The purpose of this aerospace information report is to provide a listing of national and international metric standards for use in aerospace fluid systems with their equivalent SAE inch, International ISO, and European AECMA standards.
Male pipe threads, including male dryseal pipe threads, when made into assemblies or installed into ports, will generally leak if not covered with a sealant. This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as a guide to assist designers and/or users in the selection and application of various types of thread sealants. The designers and users must make a systematic review of each type and application and then select the sealant to fulfill the requirements of the application. The following are general guidelines and are not necessarily a complete list.
This SAE Recommended Practice sets forth a method for evaluating the flow properties of automotive sealers that have been dispensed via a high pressure automatic system.
