Further to above. I have been told by a team member that a material with the same hardness but with different microstructures will give you a different wear resistance.
He claimed 5120 carbonitrided case will have "better" wear resistance than carburised 5120 case because of the presence of...
Hi all, they are components in a roller conveyor chain.
TVP: we know the environment these components are working in - regularly exposed to rocks, dirts etc and during downtime outdoor weather.
EDStainless: yes we are aware of the compressive failure. The proposed solution is to change from...
Steel bush (case hardened) and steel roller ( thru hardened). Ceramic is not an option. One of the project objectives is improving wear with same or reduced cost.
They are a sub component in a farm machinery. We know there is no regular lubrication regime.
The solution being discussed...
For the same hardness and depth, does carbonitrided case has a better wear resistance than a carburised case?
Involved in a project where we need to double the life of a bush. At present the bush wears out in one year. We need it to last two years. It's mating/sliding contact with a roller.
