Abstract
Galling is a type of wear that affects the oil and gas industry causing loss of profits due to unexpected stops in the exploration and extraction process. In the present work, the galling resistance of four API grade steels (L80 type 1, T95 type 2, P110, and Q125) used in the industry was evaluated by means of cross-cylinder tests. The surfaces were analyzed, and a Galling Tendency number was computed in order to rank the materials. Additionally, tensile and hardness tests were conducted to analyze the influence of the mechanical properties on galling. It was found that P110 exhibited the worst response and T95 the best one. For materials with the same ductility, an increase in strength is associated with higher galling resistance. A new index, based on the ductility and yield strength of the material, is proposed to predict the galling performance, demonstrating a strong correlation with the galling tendency.
期刊介绍:
Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, Wear embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications by the current authors or by others, may result in rejection.
