In selecting the proper type of Babbitt for a
particular job there are a number of factors to take into consideration,
the most import of which are as follows:
1. Surface speed of the SHAFT
2. Load bearing is required to carry
Secondly, but no less important, the following points must also be
taken into account:
|
A. Continuity of service |
D. Lubrication |
| B. Bonding possibilities |
E. Cleanliness |
| C. Cooling facilities |
F. Attention given to the bearings in question |
There is no doubt that if a bearing be highly loaded in relation to
its size, a high tin alloy is desirable; whereas for much slower speed
work and less heavily loaded bearings, a lead-base one may be employed,
and is far more economical.
1. Surface speed of the shaft: (The number of feet
traveled per minute by the shaft circumferentially.) |
|
|
|
Pi = 3.1416 |
|
Formula: |
Pi x D x RPM |
= S |
D = Diameter of Shaft |
|
12 |
RPM = Revolutions Per Minute |
|
|
|
S = Surface speed of the Shaft |
|
|
|
|
Example: |
Determine the
surface of a 2 inch diameter shaft going 1,400 RPM |
|
Pi x D x RPM |
= 3.1416 x 2 x 1,400 = 733.04
Ft/min |
|
12 |

|
|
| 2. Load Bearing
is required to carry: (The weight which is being exerted through the
combined weights of the shaft and any other direct weights on the shaft
and measured in pounds per square inch.) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
W = Total weight carried by
bearing |
|
Formula: |
___W___ |
= L |
I.D = Inside diameter of
bearing |
|
I.D x L.O.B. |
L = Load bearing required to
carry |
|
|
|
L.O.B = Length of Bearing |
|
|
|
Example: |
Determine the load
on a bearing of a 2 inch I.D bearing,
5 inches long and carrying a weight
of 3,100 lbs |
|
_____W_____ |
= 3,100 =
310 Lbs/sq.in |

D The values of yield point were taken
from stress-strain curves at deformation of 0.125% of gage length |
|
E Johnson's apparent elastic limit is
taken as the unit stress at the point where the slope of the tangent to
the curve is 2/3 times its slope in origin |
