Abstract
The examination of a number of laboratory induced ‘wire wool’ type bearing failures and service failures has led to the conclusion that the steel slivers forming the wire wool, which are responsible for the often self-propagating nature of these failures, are produced by a process of spinning of the journal surface.Keywords
