Gear Lubrication

Course No. MA-1003

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Edward P. Brunet, Jr., P.E.

 

Overview

Selecting the appropriate lubricant is a critical step in gear design. When properly selected and applied, gear lubricants reduce friction and wear, help to prevent corrosion, reduce operating noise, improve heat transfer and facilitate removal of abrasive wear particles from the contact areas of the gear tooth surfaces.

In this course, the student will study the lubricants that are used to protect the various types of gears that are used in commercial applications. The course will cover Chapter 9, "Gears" in the US Army Corps of Engineers document EM 1110-2-1424, "Lubricants and Hydraulic Fluids".

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Factors to consider when selecting a lubricant for a gear application
  • Types of gears and their common applications
  • Causes and mitigations for gear failure, including wear, pitting, micropitting, adhesion, abrasion and scuffing
  • General gear lubricant characteristics, including viscosity, temperature, lubricity and adhesion
  • Various types of gear lubricants and their relative merits
