Wear of typical carbon-base sliding seal materials at temperatures to 700 degrees F

Description: Report presenting wear and friction studies to show the effects on performance of temperature, type of mating material, and minor composition changes in typical carbon seal materials. Most data were obtained at a surface speed of 10,000 feet per minute, a load of 1000 grams on a 3/16-inch-radius specimen, and temperatures up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit. Wear of carbon seal materials increased rapidly with high temperatures. The effect of temperature on wear was reduced by using chromium-plated st… more
