I am talking about metal stamped unground bearings using low carbon steels, well known to many roller conveyor manufacturers. These are not precisions bearings that are made of chrome steels. Driving out cost is the goal, please see some of my other posts with.
To: TVP (Materials) The bearings I am dealing with are low carbon steel using carburized races. These are known in material handling industry as commercial grade or unground bearings. My company has been manufactruing them in the USA for over 50 years. Driving cost out with HSLA is an attempt to...
To: tbuelna (Aerospace) I agree insuficiemnt hardness of the HSLA at the raceway surface. Sheet metal races use Cold Rolled Draw Quality Steel to manufacture parts. They are then carburized to obtain the hardened surface. Typicalll metal stamped bearings have been around for many years and are...
This is something that upper mgt. has been having me test. The results are less than desireable. I need to clarify the HSLA we are using is not heat treated after stamping the raceways.
Has anyone ever heard over unground bearings using outer raceways manufactured from HSLA steel. Any input appreciated. I have put forth alot of effort into actual life/load dynamic testing and comparing to standard bearings using low carbon grade steel stamped outer races that have been case...
