| Description |
Tribo-fatigue, an important phenomenon, is influenced by the lubricant base oil and lubricant additives. There are many ~pecifications for
automotive hypoid gear oils which specifies different levels of performance. These specifications do not stipulate any requirements with
respect to fatigue performance of the lubricant. However, tribo-fatigue is recognised as an important parameter for understanding the better
performance of the lubricants. .
In view of this, a programme was undertaken to generate data on tribo-fatigue performance of Indian automotive gear oils and search for
additives which can enhance the fatigue performance of these lubricants. This paper deals with the studies made, on one such boron additive
on a rolling contact four ball fatigue tester and summarises the results obtained and assesses the influence of the additive on tribo-fatigue
performance of formulated gear oils.
Keywords: Tribo-fatigue, gear oils, additives, rolling contact, four ball machine.
