Friction and wear tests on 'ampep' bearings (IM-DA-065)

Tests were carried out to determine the suitability of 'Ampep' bearings for use in the swing-links of A.P.T. As the proposed 2" bore bearings were not available, 1¾" ones were used and the load scaled down accordingly. The results show that the friction level obtainable with these bearings is...
