May be used on some bearing journals during overhaul
1. A sudden increase (10-12 ppm AE) of Fe or an increase (5-7 ppm AE) of Fe in conjunction with an indication
(2 ppm AE) of Cu can indicate main bearing distress. The No. 3 bearing is the only main bearing with
significant copper. Small amounts of Ag may accompany the Fe or Fe and Cu.
2. A moderate increasing trend of Fe may indicate excessive spline wear on the IGB horizontal shaft spline.
3. For a confirmed significant (4-5 ppm AE) Ti reading, the No. 3 bearing inner race is turning on the hub.
4. Lube and scavenge pump bearing distress may be indicated by trends in Fe an Cu together. Al may
accompany the Fe and Cu.
5. Increasing trends in Fe may indicate gearbox problems. Al, Cu and Ag wear metals may accompany the
increase in Fe.
6. Cr may be used for rework of main bearing journals and gearbox bearing journals. Increasing Cr may indicate
inner race spinning on the journals except No. 3 bearing.
