AB  - Improvements in rolling element bearing design, manufacturing standards and materials have resulted in significant increase in bearing life and performance. Thus, bearing life is often limited by lubrication failure of the grease. A study was carried out to examine grease degradation under controlled operating conditions simulating those experienced in rolling element bearings. The critical bearing factors determining grease lubrication failure wee considered to be the short replenishment time between over-rolling, thin lubricant films in the raceway, and the presence of metal wear debris. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 2009 World Tribology Congress (Kyoto, Japan 9/6-11/2009).
