Abstract

The subject of this article is the failed bushing used in the car suspension. The claim of the broken bushing came from the car producer. The main aim of this paper was to know if the failure was a green crack as evidenced by steam treatment oxide on the crack interfaces. To check, these items a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), hardness testers, and optical microscope were used. The density of the upper edge where the crack occurred was checked. Based on this investigation it was found that the crack was not caused by the rollover application.

Keywords: Density, crack, sintering, compacting
