Description This work has evaluated the rolling contact fatigue lives of EN-31 steel balls with several gear oil formulations using a 4-ball tester under accelerated test conditions. From the fatigue data generated Weibull plots are made and rolling fatigue lives L1o, Lso, characteristic life r] are determined for all the gear oils. Theoretical estimation of lubricant film thickness at the contact of surfaces for each gear oils is made. An attempt was made to assess the influence of film thickness on fatigue lives of steel balls. KEYWORDS Rolling fatigue lives, gear oils, 4-ball machine, weibull plot, film thickness
