History of receipt

Babbitt created the American jeweler Isaac Babbitt, after whom this alloy is named. However, in the production of ornaments, babbitt was not distributed. Industrialists began to actively use it. Babbit has a high antifriction properties, and therefore it began to be poured into bearings, firstly steam engines, and later — and into other rubbing parts, which experience significant mechanical loads.

Mechanical properties (temperature 20 ° C)

1. · The minimum hardness of HB 13−32,
2. · Minimum t ° melting of the substrate ≤ 320 ° C,
3. · Increased ductility ≤ 100 ° C HB 9 — 24.

1. σ в — Short-term strength limit
2. σ T — Limit of proportionality (yield stress for permanent deformation)

Babbit alloys are not distinguished by their strength, which often hinders the operation of moving parts and allows them to be used only in bearings with a strong steel casing.

Using

Bearings of diesel engines and high-speed turbines, ship and stationary steam engines. Support bearings of propeller shafts, turbo pumps, compressors ,.

Storage

In closed warehouses or under a canopy, where adequate protection against mechanical and other damages is provided.
