Abstract

The Cr7C3 coatings used in a helicopter transmission system was peel off in service life. In this paper, the causes of the crack are analyzed by experiments. The results show that peeling mode is contact fatigue flaking. The reason for the peeling is that there are many crack sources in the coatings. In addition, the contact between the surface asperities makes the coating surface and the near surface subjected to shear force. At the same time, under the action of high-pressure oil wave and alternating stress, the cracks extend in the direction of 45 degrees through the surface. Finally, under the effect of the surface shearing force, the coatings begin to peel off.
