a discussion of the frictional characteristics of such materials). Whitemetals
have relatively low fatigue strength and this can limit their use to low-load
conditions. Reducing the thickness of the bearing material lining can improve
the fatigue properties but does require care because of the size of the hard
intermetallic particle. Tin-base alloys when compared with lead-base alloys
resist corrosion better, have higher thermal conductivity, have higher modulus
of elasticity and have higher yield stress but are significantly more expensive.
Both forms of alloy are relatively soft. Bearings are usually manufactured b
