Assessment of polytetrafluoroethylene composites for deep groove ball bearing applications through free run and rolling contact fatigue tests

Abstract Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is widely used in tribological applications. However, its usage in the ball-bearing application has not been explored. The present study investigates the usage of PTFE composites for deep groove ball (DGB) bearings. Initially, a ball-on-disc experiment is cond...
