Question: Different bearing metallurgy affects bearing life. A manufacturer reports that a particular heat treatment increases bearing life at least threefold. A bearing identical to that

Different bearing metallurgy affects bearing life. A manufacturer reports that a particular heat treatment increases bearing life at least threefold. A bearing identical to that of Prob. 11–15 except for the heat treatment, loaded to 18 kN and run at 2000 rev/min, revealed an L10 life of 360 h and an L80 life of 2000 h. Do you agree with the manufacturer's assertion concerning increased life?
