Plain bearings — Metallic multilayer plain bearings — Part 1: Non-destructive ultrasonic testing of bond of thickness greater than or equal to 0,5 mm ISO 4386-1:2012

Publication date:   Oct 15, 2012

Scope

ISO 4386-1:2012 specifies an ultrasonic testing method for determining bond defects between the bearing metal and the backing. The test can be performed on metallic multilayer plain bearings consisting of steel- or copper-based material backings lined with bearing metal based on lead and tin, with layer thicknesses greater than or equal to 0,5 mm. For cast iron backings, ISO 4386-1:2012 is applicable with restrictions.
