Lots about lubrication of rolling bearings
16 April 2015
A new publication from Schaeffler UK contains a wealth of useful information for engineers who want to learn more about the principles, methods, selection and testing of lubricants for rolling bearings.

The 200-page publication – 'Lubrication of Rolling Bearings' – begins by looking at the main principles and theories of rolling bearing lubrication, as well as the key design considerations such as viscosity ratio, fatigue theory, lubricant film thickness, load carrying capacity, calculation of the rating life, and the effects of friction, speed and operating temperature on lubricant performance.
