Summary of Test Method4.1 New, cleaned, and lubricated bearings are run under alight thrust load for 60 s 6 3 s to distribute the lubricant in apattern that might be found in
10、service. The bearings areexposed to water, then stored for 48 h 6 0.5 h at 52 C 6 1C(125 F 6 2 F) and 100 % relative humidity. After cleaning,the bearing cups are examined for evidence of corrosion.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method differentiates the relative corrosion-preventive capabilit

24、theassembly into a plastic jar as described in 10.1 through 10.4.Place the jar onto the base of the motor drive spindle and centerit under the indexing pin of the drive. Lower the drive until theO ring just contacts the 1 kg weight. Run the bottom nut of thedepth gage (see Fig. 3) down to the stop.
25、Place a 3 mm spaceron top of this nut. Bring the top nut down to the spacer. Whileholding the top nut in position, remove the spacer and run thebottom nut up and tighten it against the top nut. When the Oring is compressed against the 1 kg weight until the adjustmentnut hits the stop, there will be
26、a 29 N load added, giving a totalload of 39 N on the bearing. (The loads described are providedby the forces of the spring in the thrust loading spindle and sumof the 1 kg weight and spring, respectively. These loads areapproximate. The 1 kg weights should be within 0.010 kg oftheir stated values. T

Can be fatal if swallowed.Harmful if inhaled.) to remove the mineral spirits, reagentgrade and any fingerprints that are present. Then rinse thebearing and slowly rotate in fresh hot (66 C 6 5 C) solventrinse solution.NOTE
36、2Use fresh rinse solution to avoid the selective evaporation ofthe components at the rinse temperature.9.4 Remove the bearing from the solvent rinse solution andplace on filter paper to drain. After draining, dry the bearing inan oven at 70 C 6 5 C for 15 min to 30 min.9.5 Permit the bearing to cool
37、 to room temperature andreexamine surfaces to assure that corrosion-free and free-turning specimens have been selected. (Care should be takennot to spin the bearings after cleaning and drying.)9.6 Wash and dry the bearing packer using the sametechnique as for the preparation of the bearings.10. Proc
38、edure10.1 With the reservoir of grease packer resting on a cleanbench top, and while wearing gloves, place bearing cup withsmall diameter face down into the recess of the packer. Placethe bearing cone over the cup, and while holding the bearingassembly against the packer, lift and invert the whole u
39、nit andreturn it to the bench.10.2 Fill the reservoir with the grease sample, and use theplunger to force grease through the bearing. Carefully removethe plunger from the reservoir to avoid sucking air into thebearing, and slide the packer unit over the edge of the bench.While holding the bearing as
40、sembly in the packer, invert theunit to its original position on the bench.10.3 Using a small square-ended spatula, remove excessgrease from the bearing bore and the annulus between thegrease packer and outer perimeter of the bearing cup. Thebearing is removed from the packer by either use of the pl
41、iersor by placing gloved index finger in the bore and lifting out.While holding the bearing, use the spatula to remove excessgrease above the cage on both sides of the bearing. Thisprocedure is done to ensure that approximately the samevolume of grease is used each time.10.4 Using Fig. 1 as a guide,
42、 hold the packed bearingbetween gloved fingers with large inside diameter of cupdownward and insert the small diameter plastic flange on top ofthe bore, and the larger flange into the bottom of the bore. Slidethe bearing assembly onto the 1 kg weight so that the largediameter flange fits into the re
43、cess on the top of the weight.Insert the bolt through the assembly and screw the bolt tightlyinto the weight. Lower the plastic bearing holder (Part 8) overthe bearing (the large O ring faces upward). Press down theholder so that the bearing fits squarely into the holder.NOTE 3If bearing holders and
44、 plastic test jars are used interchange-ably for Test Method D5969 and D1743, thoroughly clean the testapparatus to prevent contamination affecting the test results.10.5 Invert a plastic jar over the bearing assembly. Slide thetwo components over the edge of the bench, and with fingerspressing the w
45、eight against the inner bottom of the jar, invertthe entire assembly.10.6 Place the jar onto the base of the motor driven spindleand center under the indexing pin of the drive. Start the motorand bring the drive into the center of the 1 kg weight and loaduntil the nut hits the depth stop. Run for 60
46、 s, raise the drive,and allow the bearing to coast to a stop. Extreme care shouldbe taken not to break the contact between the races and rollersat this point and in the following steps.10.6.1 At no time during or after the 60 s run shall thegrease be redistributed or forced back into the bearing.10.
47、7 Freshly boil the distilled water for 10 min 6 5 min toremove carbon dioxide and cool to 25 C 6 5 C.10.8 Fill a clean syringe with 100 mL 6 5 mL of distilledwater from 10.7. With the run-in bearing in the jar, simultane-ously start a timer and begin adding the water into the holeprovided for this p
48、urpose in the bearing holder. Add the100 mL of water within 20 s 6 3 s. When the timer shows 50 s6 3 s start withdrawing the water. When the timer shows 60 s6 3 s, complete the withdrawal of 70 mL 6 5 mL of water.Leave the remaining 30 mL 6 5 mL of water in the jar. Makesure that water does not touc
49、h the bearing after 70 mL 6 5mLis withdrawn. It may be difficult to withdraw 70 mL 6 5mLwater in 10 s using a 16 gauge needle. A larger needle may berequired.10.9 Screw the cap on the jar and transfer to a dark ovenessentially free from vibration for 48 h at 52 C 6 1 C.TABLE 1 Metric Equivalents for Figs. 3 and 4Inches Millimetres132 0.7918 3.18532 3.97316 4.76532 7.14516 7.9438 9.53716 11.1112 12.701932 15.082132 16.6734 19.051 25.40118 28.581316 31.26114 31.7511132 34.131.495 37.971.500 38.101916 39.69114 44.451.
