Advanced Gear Steels and Lubricants for Improved Gear Tooth Scuffing/Scoring Resistance for Aircraft Applications.

Abstract

Two advanced gear materials (Timken CBS 1000M and Carpenter Cartech EX00014) and an AMS 6260 gear material were evaluated in combination with three lubricants (unformulated basestock ester, a qualified MIL-L-23699B, and an XAS-2354 lubricant) to determine their gear scuffing/scoring capacities. The results show that (1) the CBS 1000M steel is superior to AMS 6260 with the lubricants evaluated; (2) the EX00014 steel is superior to the AMS 6260 with the formulated lubricants; and (3) the XAS-2354A lubricant showed significant load carrying capacity improvements for all three gear steels.
