🔍 Key Concepts

• Split-type bearings and why they are made in more than one piece • Characteristics of Babbitt-lined bearings (soft lining, load distribution, ease of replacement) • How reduction gear bearings are mounted to handle heavy, reversing loads

💭 Think About

• Think about why a bearing would be made in split form: what maintenance or alignment advantages does this give? • Consider how pressure should be distributed on a properly mounted bearing: should the highest pressure be on a joint line or on a continuous surface? • Ask yourself whether reduction gear bearings need to be free to adjust slightly, or rigidly fixed with no ability to conform to shaft or gear movement.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which options would help maintain proper oil film and load distribution on the Babbitt lining. • Eliminate any choice that would create high stress or pressure exactly at the split/joint faces of the bearing. • Consider which option best matches common practice for large marine reduction gears used in propulsion plants.
