Question:

Material for bearing housings

I see the bearing block drawings, the material column above is filled with, 16MnI want to know whether the seat is forged or cast

Answer:

Forging and casting are mainly casting, machining and forging. But high precision, excellent comprehensive performance. The bearing seat is mainly made of cast iron, 16Mn is the main alloy element is Mn, accounting for 1.6%, there are other W Cr V, has high hardness and wear resistance, and resistance to a certain temperature.
The bearings are made of cast iron, cast steel, stainless steel, etc..Generally, the rolling bearings are composed of four parts, namely, outer ring, inner ring, roller and cage. Strictly speaking, the rolling bearings are composed of six big parts, namely, outer ring, inner ring, rolling body, cage, seal and lubricating oil. Mainly with the outer ring, inner ring, rolling body can be defined as rolling bearings. According to the shape of the rolling element, the rolling bearings are divided into two major categories: ball bearings and roller bearings.
Bearing housings are made of cast iron and are often cast iron. 16MN stands for manganese steel content of 16%, plays a wear-resistant role, but also resistance to about 200 degrees of temperature.
