Wear Control Handbook

ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK

By M.B. Peterson and W.O. Winer

This classic Handbook is the first attempt to collect wear data which can be used in machinery design and maintenance. To some degree this objective has been achieved; however, continuing efforts are needed to fully attain the goal.

Contents include: Classification of Wear Processes, Systems Approach to Wear Problems, Wear Theory and Mechanisms, Lubricated Wear, Wear Resistant Materials, Wear Coefficients of Hard-Surfacing Materials, Filtration for Wear Control, Bushings, Unlubricated Piston Rings, Gear Wear, Cutting Tool Wear, Wear in Tillage Tools, Wear in Ore Processing Machinery and Impact Wear Analysis and Applications.
