working on Tilting Pad Thrust Bearing...help me

Submitted by sprashant27 on

 

 we have Tilting Bearing Test Rig. We intended to find out the chararacteristics of Teflon material to be utilised as a Tilting pad material. Because in some sugar industries the Teflon strips are used there for very low speed under a conveyor taking very high load. But the suitability of Teflon has not been checked ever.

In this regard I require your help

 

1)  I want to find out characteristics of Teflon material, still nowhere I find the characteristics of Teflon as a tilting pad material.

2) You are working in the area of Bearing, so I request you to kindly provide me the data or any literature where Teflon is used as a pad material.

 

The above information will be strictly used for academic purpose only.

 

Thanking You

Yours Truely,
