Abstract

The study is intended to approach the possible failures in machine elements (bearings) manufactured  in  AISI  52100  and  its  main  wear  mechanisms, adhesion,  abrasion,  corrosion  and fatigue. the main types of lubricants will be presented, with an emphasis on oil and grease characteristics, physico-chemical and its major additives. The study was carried out a device that performed tests in the same 15W-50 viscosity lubricant at different periods of utilization 1000, 2000 and 3000 kilometers.Iit was possible to measure the breakage of the lubricating film due to the pressure exerted by the device and thus effectively exemplify the adverse effects on machine elements due to the poor management of lubrication.
