    1 IntroductionThe purpose of this handbook is to providecomprehensive technical information onthe characteristics of DX bearings. Theinformation given, permits designers toestablish the correct size of bearing requi-red and the expected life and performance.Glacier Garlock Bearings Research andDevelopment services are available toassist with unusual design problems.

    Complete information on the range of DXstandard stock products is given togetherwith details of other DX products.Glacier Garlock Bearings is continuallyrefining and extending its experimental andtheoretical knowledge and, therefore,when using this brochure it is alwaysworthwhile to contact the Company shouldadditional information be required. Customers are advised to carry out proto-type testing wherever possible.

    1.1 Characteristics and Advantages DX provides maintenance free opera-

    tion DX has a high pU capability DX exhibits low wear rate Seizure resistant Suitable for temperatures from -40 to

    +120 °C High static and dynamic load capacity

    Good frictional properties No water absorption and therefore

    dimensionally stable Compact and light Suitable for rotating, oscillating, reci-

    procating and sliding movements DX bearings are prefinished and

    require no machining after assembly

    2 StructureDX is a composite bearing materialdeveloped specifically to operate with mar-ginal lubrication and consists of three bon-ded layers: a steel backing strip and asintered porous bronze matrix, impregna-ted and overlaid with a pigmented acetalcopolymer bearing material.The steel backing provides mechanicalstrength and the bronze interlayer providesa strong mechanical bond for the lining.This construction promotes dimensionalstability and improves thermal conductivity,thus reducing the temperature at the bea-ring surface. DX is designed for use with grease lubrica-tion and the bearing surface is normally

    provided with a uniform pattern of indentsThese serve as a reservoir for the greaseand are designed to provide the optimumdistribution of the lubricant over the bea-ring surface.

    GreaseThis is the recommended method of lubri-cation. The performance ratings of diffe-rent types of grease are indicated in Table3. For environmental temperatures above50°C the grease should contain an

    anti-oxidant additive. Greases containingEP additives or significant additions of gra-phite or MoS2 are not generally recom-mended for use with DX.

    OilDX is not generally suitable for use withhydrocarbon oils operating above 115 °C.At these temperatures oxidation of the oilmay produce a low concentration of labileresidues, acid or free radical, which willcause depolymerisation of the DX acetalcopolymer bearing lining.

    Such oxidation can also occur after prolon-ged periods at lower temperatures. Inpractice, this means that DX is not recom-mended for use with recirculating oilsystems or bath systems where sump tem-perature of 70 °C or greater are possible.

    Non lubricating fluidsCare must be taken when using DX withnon lubricating fluids as indicated below.

    WaterDX is only suitable for operation in waterwhen the load and speed permit full hydro-

    dynamic conditions to be established (seeFig. 7).

    Water-Oil EmulsionDX is suitable for use with 95/5 water/oilemulsions, however initial operation with

    pure oil or grease is recommended beforetransferring to emulsion.

    Shock-Absorber OilsDX is not compatible with shock-absorberoils at operating temperature.

    PetrolWith petrol as a lubricant at a pU factor of0.21 N/mm2 x m/s the wear rate of DX hasbeen found to be about 4-5 times greater

    than that of an initially greased bearingunder the same pU conditions.

    Kerosene and PolybuteneThe wear rate of DX with these fluids hasbeen found to be equivalent to that obtai-ned with a light hydrocarbon oil.

    Other FluidsPolyester, polyethylene glycol and polygly-col lubricants give similar wear rates withDX to light hydrocarbon oil. With the glycolfluids however the operating temperaturemust not exceed 80°C because of the pos-sibility of attack of the acetal lining of DXby these fluids.In general, the fluid will be acceptable if itdoes not chemically attack the acetal liningor the porous bronze interlayer. Chemicalresistance data are given in Table 2.Where there is doubt about the suitabilityof a fluid, a simple test is to submerge a

    sample of DX material in the fluid for two tothree weeks at 15-20°C above the opera-ting temperature. The following will usuallyindicate that the fluid is not suitable for usewith DX. A significant change in the thickness of

    the DX material, A visible change in the bearing surface

    from polished to matt. A visible change in the microstructure of

    the bronze interlayer

    4.2 FrictionLubricated DX bearings show negligiblestick-slip and provide smooth sliding bet-ween adjacent surfaces. The coefficient offriction of lubricated DX depends upon the

    actual operating condi-tions as indicated insection 4.3. Where frictional characteristicsare critical to a design they should be esta-blished by prototype testing.

    4.3 Lubricated EnvironmentsThe following sections describe the basicsof lubrication and provide guidance on theapplication of DX in such environments.

    Lubrication There are three modes of lubricated bea-ring operation which relate to the thicknessof the developed lubricant film between thebearing and the mating surface.

    These three modes of operation dependupon: Bearing dimensions Clearance Load and Speed Lubricant Viscosity and Flow

    Hydrodynamic lubrication Characterised by: Complete separation of the shaft from

    the bearing by the lubricant film Very low friction and no wear of the bea-

    ring or shaft since there is no contact Coefficients of friction of 0.001 to 0.01

    Fig. 4: Hydrodynamic lubrication

    Hydrodynamic conditions occur when

    Mixed film lubricationCharacterised by: Combination of hydrodynamic and

    boundary lubrication. Part of the load is carried by localised

    areas of self pressurised lubricant andthe remainder supported by boundarylubrication.

    Friction and wear depend upon thedegree of hydrodynamic supportdeveloped.

    DX provides low friction and high wearresistance to support the boundary lubri-cated element of the load.

    Boundary lubrication Characterised by: Rubbing of the shaft against the bearing

    with virtually no lubricant separating thetwo surfaces.

    Bearing material selection is critical toperformance.

    Shaft wear is likely due to contact bet-ween bearing and shaft.

    The excellent properties of DX materialminimises wear under these conditions.

    The dynamic coefficient of friction withDX is typically 0.02 to 0.1 under bound-ary lubrication conditions.

    The static coefficient of friction with DX istypically 0.03 to 0.15 under boundarylubrication conditions.

    Fig. 6: Boundary lubrication

    4.4 Characteristics of Fluid Lubricated DX BearingsDX is particularly effective in the mostdemanding of lubricated applications

    where full hydrodynamic operation cannotbe maintained, for example:

    High load conditions In highly loaded applications operatingunder boundary or mixed film conditionsDX shows excellent wear resistance andlow friction.

    Start up and shut down under load With insufficient speed to generate ahydrodynamic film the bearing will ope-rate under boundary or mixed film condi-tions.- DX minimises wear- DX requires less start up torque than

    conventional metallic bearings.

    Sparse lubrication Many applications require the bearing tooperate with less than the ideal lubricantsupply, typically with splash or mist lubri-cation only.DX requires significantly less lubricantthan conventional metallic bearings.

    4.5 Design Guidance for Fluid Lubricated Applications

    Fig. 7, Page 11 shows the three lubricationregimes discussed above plotted on a

    graph of sliding speed vs the ratio of speci-fic load to lubricant viscosity.

    In order to use Fig. 7 Using the formulae in Section 5

    - Calculate the specific load p- Calculate the shaft surface speed(U)

    Using the viscosity temperature relati-onships presented in Table 4.- Determine the viscosity in centipoise

    of the lubricant.

    Note:Viscosity is a function of operating tempe-rature. If the operating temperature of the

    fluid is unknown, a provisional temperatureof 25 °C above ambient can be used.

    Area 1 of Fig. 7The bearing will operate with boundarylubrication.The pU factor will be the major determinantof bearing life.

    DX bearing performance can be estimatedfrom the following:Calculate Effective pU Factor from Section5.8

    Area 2 of Fig. 7The bearing will operate with mixed filmlubrication.pU factor is no longer a significant parame-ter in determining the bearing life.

    DX bearing performance will depend uponthe nature of the fluid and the actual ser-vice conditions.

    Area 3 of Fig. 7The bearing will operate with hydrodyna-mic lubrication. Bearing wear will be deter-mined only by the cleanliness of the lubri-

    cant and the frequency of start up and shutdown.

    Area 4 of Fig. 7 These are the most demanding opera-

    ting conditions. The bearing is operated under either

    high speed or high bearing load to visco-sity ratio, or a combination of both.

    These conditions may cause

    - excessive operating temperature- and/or high wear rate.

    Bearing performance may be improved:- by use of unindented DX lining- by the addition of one or more grooves

    to the bearing- by shaft surface finish < 0.05 [µm Ra].

    4.6 Wear Rate and Relubrication Intervals with Grease lubrication

    At specific bearing loads below 100 N/mm2a grease lubricated DX bearing shows onlysmall bedding-in wear of about 0.0025mm. This is followed by little wear duringthe early part of the bearing life until thelubricant becomes exhausted and thewear rate increases. If the bearing isregreased before the rate of wear starts toincrease rapidly the material will continueto function satisfactorily with little wear.Fig. 8 shows the typical wear pattern.

    Under specific loads above 100 N/mm2 theinitial bedding-in wear is greater, typicallyabout 0.025 mm, followed by a decreasingwear rate until the bearing exhibits a simi-lar wear/life relationship to that shown inFig. 8.The useful life of the bearing is limited bywear in the loaded area. If this wearexceeds 0.15mm the grease capacity ofthe indents is reduced and more frequentregreasing of the bearing will be required.

    Fretting WearOscillating movements of less than thedimensions of the indent pattern maycause localised wear of the mating surfaceafter prolonged usage. This will result inthe indent pattern becoming transferred

    onto the mating surface in contact with theDX bearing and may also give rise to fret-ting corrosion damage. In this situationDSTM material should be considered as analternative to DX.

    Mating surface roughness Ra [µm] Mating surface material Temperature T [°C] Other environmental factors eg. housing

    design, dirt, lubrication.

    5.1 Specific LoadThe specific load p is defined as the wor-king load divided by the projected area ofthe bearing and is expressed in N/mm2.

    Bushes Thrust Washers

    Slide Plates

    Specific Load LimitThe maximum load which can be appliedto a DX bearing can be expressed in termsof the Specific Load Limit, which dependson the type of the loading and lubrication Itis highest under steady loads. The valuesof Specific Load Limit specified in Table 5assume good alignment between the bea-ring and mating surface.

    The Specific Load Limit for DX reduces forbearing operating temperatures in excessof 40 °C, falling to about half the valuesgiven in Table 5 for temperatures above100 °C.Conditions of dynamic load or oscillatingmovement which produce fatigue stress inthe bearing result in a reduction in the per-missible Specific Load Limit (Fig. 9, Page14).

    5.5 TemperatureThe useful life of a DX bearing dependsupon the operating temperature. The per-formance of grease lubricated DX decrea-ses at bearing temperatures above 40°C.This loss of performance is related to bothmaterial and lubricant effects.For a given pU Factor the operating tem-perature of the bearing depends upon the

    temperature of the surrounding environ-ment and the heat dissipation properties ofthe housing.In calculating the service life of DX theseeffects are accomodated by the applicationfactor aT shown in Fig. 18.

    Fig. 18: DX application factor aT

    5.6 Mating SurfaceThe wear rate of DX is strongly dependentupon the roughness of the mating counter-face. For optimum bearing performancethe mating surface should be

    ground to better than 0.4 µm Ra. Thiseffect is accomodated by the mating sur-face finish application factor aS shown inFig. 19.

    5.7 Bearing SizeFrictional heat generated at the bearingsurface and dissipated through the shaftand housing depends both on the opera-ting conditions (i.e. pU factor) and the bea-ring size.

    For a give pU condition a large bearing willrun hotter than a smaller bearing. The bea-ring size factor aB shown in Fig. 20 takesaccount of this effect.

    7 Bearing Assembly7.1 Dimensions and TolerancesFor optimum performance it is essentialthat the correct running clearance is usedand that both the diameter of the shaft andthe bore of the housing are finished to thelimits given in the tables.If the bearing housing is unusually flexiblethe bush will not close in by the calculated

    amount and the running clearance will bemore than the optimum. In these circum-stances the housing should be boredslightly undersize or the journal diameterincreased, the correct size being determi-ned by experiment.

    7.2 Tolerances for minimum clearance

    Grease lubricationThe minimum clearance required for satis-factory performance of DX depends uponthe pU factor, the sliding speed and theenvironmental temperature, any one orcombination of which may reduce the dia-metral clearance in operation due toinward thermal expansion of the DX poly-mer lining. It is therefore necessary tocompensate for this.Fig. 21 shows the minimum diametral clea-rance plotted stepped against journal dia-meter at an ambient 20°C. Where thestepped lines show a change of clearancefor a given journal diameter, the lowervalue is used. The superimposed straight lines indicatethe minimum permissible diametral clear-

    ance for various values of pUu (Fig. 21),where pU is calculated as in 5.3 on Page15, and u is a sliding speed factor forspeeds in excess of 0.5 m/s given inFig. 22.If the clearance indicated for a pUu factorlies below the stepped lines the recom-mended standard shaft may be used. Ifabove, the shaft size must be reduced toobtain the clearance indicated on the verti-cal axis of the relevant figure.Under slow speed and high load conditionsit may be possible to achieve satisfactoryperformance with diametral clearancesless than those indicated. But adequateprototype testing is recommended in suchcases.

    Fluid LubricationThe minimum clearance required for jour-nal bearings operating under hydrodyna-mic or mixed film conditions for a range ofshaft rotational speeds and diameters is

    7.3 Counterface DesignDX bearings may be used with all conven-tional mating surface materials. Hardeningof steel journals is not required unlessabrasive dirt is present or if the projectedbearing life is in excess of 2000 hours, inwhich cases a minimum shaft hardness of350HB is recommended.A ground surface finish of better than0.4µm Ra is recommended. The finaldirection of machining of the mating sur-face should preferably be the same as thedirection of motion relative to the bearingin service.DX is normally used in conjunction with fer-rous journals and thrust faces, but in dampor corrosive surroundings stainless steel or

    hard chromium plated mild steel, alterna-tively WH shaft sleeves (Standard pro-gramm available) are recommended.When plated mating surfaces are specifiedthe plating should possess adequatestrength and adhesion, particularly if thebearing is to operate with high fluctuatingloads.The shaft or thrust collar used in con-junction with the DX bush or thrust washermust extend beyond the bearing surface inorder to avoid cutting into it. The matingsurface must also be free from grooves orflats, the end of the shaft should be given alead-in chamfer and all sharp edges orprojections which may damage the softpolymer lining of the DX must be removed.

    AlignmentAccurate alignment is an important consi-deration for all bearing assemblies. WithDX bearings misalignment over the length

    of a bush (or pair of bushes), or over thediameter of a thrust washer should notexceed 0.020 mm as illustrated in Fig. 28.

    Fig. 28: Alignment

    SealingWhile DX can tolerate the ingress of somecontaminant materials into the bearing wit-hout loss of performance, where there isthe possibility of highly abrasive material

    entering the bearing, a suitable sealingarrangement, as illustrated in Fig. 29should be provided.

    Axial LocationWhere axial location is necessary, it isgenerally advisable to fit DX thrust was-hers in conjunction with DX bushes, evenwhen the axial loads are low. Experience

    has shown that fretting debris from unsa-tisfactory locating surfaces can enter anadjacent DX bush and adversely affect thebearing life and performance.

    Fitting of Thrust WashersDX thrust washers should be located onthe outside diameter in a recess as shownin Fig. 30. The inside diameter must beclear of the shaft in order to prevent con-tact with the steel backing of the DX mate-rial. The recess diameter should be 0.125mm larger than the washer diameter andthe depth as given in the product tables.

    If there is no recess for the thrust washerone of the following methods of fixing maybe used: two dowel pins two screws adhesive

  • 8Machining

    29

    8 Machining8.1 Machining PracticeThe acetal copolymer lining of DX hasgood machining characteristics and can betreated as a free cutting brass in mostrespects. The indents in the bearing sur-face may lead to the formation of burrs orwhiskers due to the resilience of the liningmaterial, but this can be avoided by usingmachining methods which remove thelining as a ribbon, rather than a narrowthread.

    When machining DX it is recommendedthat not more than 0.125 mm is removedfrom the lining thickness in order to ensurethat the lubricant capacity of the indentsremaining after machining is not signifi-cantly reduced.Boring, reaming and broaching are all sui-table machining methods for use with DX.The recommended tool material is highspeed steel or tungsten carbide.

    8.2 BoringFig. 32 illustrates a recommended boringtool which should be mounted with its axisat right angles to the direction of feed.The essential characteristic required in theboring tool is a tip radius greater than 1.5mm, which combined with a side rake of30° will produce the ribbon effect required.Cutting speeds should be high, the opti-

    mum between 2.0 and 4.5 m/s. The feedshould be low, in the range 0.05/0.025 mmfor cuts of 0.125 mm, the lower feedsbeing used with the higher cutting speeds.Satisfactory finishes can usually be obtai-ned machining dry and an air blast mayfacilitate swarfe removal. The use of coo-lant is not detrimental.

    8.3 ReamingDX can be reamed satisfactorily by handwith a straight-fluted expanding reamer.For best results the reamer should besharp, the cut 0.025-0.050 mm and the

    feed slow. Where hand reaming is notdesired machining speeds of about 0.05m/s are recommended with the cuts andfeeds as for boring.

    8.4 BroachingFig. 33 shows broaches suitable for finis-hing bushes up to 65 mm diameter. The

    broach should be used dry, at a speed of0.1-0.5 m/s.

    Fig. 33: Suitable broaches for DXUse the single tooth version where thebush is less than 25 mm long, and thedouble tooth broach for longer bushes orfor two or more bushes together.If it is necessary to make up a special formof broach the following points should benoted:

    Adequate provision should be made forlocating the bush by providing a pilot tosuit the bore of the bush when pressedhome. A rear support shoulder shouldlocate in the broached bore of the bushafter cutting. Alternatively, special guidesmay be provided external to the work-piece.

    then the pilot guide and rear supportshould be longer than the distancebetween the two bushes.

    For large bushes it may be necessary toprovide axial relief along the length ofthe pilot guide and rear support, in orderto reduce the broaching forces.

    Unless a guided broach is used, the tool

    will follow the initial bore alignment of thebush, broaching cannot improve concen-tricity and parallelism unless externalguides are used.

    In general owing to the variation in wallthickness of large diameter bushes, broa-ching is not suitable for finishing bores ofmore than 60 mm diameter unless externalguides are used.

    8.5 VibrobroachingThis technique may also be used. A singlecutter is propelled with progressive recipro-cating motion with a vibration frequency oftypically 50 Hz. The cutter should have aprimary rake of 1.5° for 0.5 mm.

    A cut of 0.25 mm on diameter may bemade at an average cutting speed of 0.15m/s to give a surface finish of better than0.8 µm Ra, which is acceptable.

    8.6 Modification of componentsThe modification of DX bearing compon-ents requires no special procedures. Ingeneral it is more satisfactory to performmachining or drilling operations from thepolymer lining side in order to avoid burrs.When cutting is done from the

    steel side, the minimum cutting pressureshould be used and care taken to ensurethat any steel or bronze particles protru-ding into the remaining bearing material,and all burrs, are removed.

    8.7 Drilling Oil HolesBushes should be adequately supportedduring the drilling operation to ensure that

    no distortion is caused by the drilling pres-sure.

    8.8 Cutting Strip MaterialDX strip material may be cut to size by anyone of the following methods. Care mustbe taken to protect the bearing surfacefrom damage and to ensure that no defor-mation of the strip occurs.

    Using side and face cutter, or slittingsaw, with the strip held flat and securelyon a horizontal milling machine.

    For the harder materials if the specifiedplating thickness exceeds approximately5 µm then the housing diameter should beincreased by twice the plating thickness inorder to maintain the correct assembledbearing bore size.Where electrolytic attack is possible testsshould be conducted to ensure that all thematerials in the bearing environment aremutually compatible.

    Mating SurfacesDX can be used against hard chrome pla-ted materials and care should be taken toensure that the recommended shaft sizes

    and surface finish are achieved after theplating process.
