"Fretting Corrosion"...

We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Fretting Corrosion", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Bearings cope with harsh agricultural applications from Schaeffler (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Schaeffler has developed a ready-to-fit bearing unit with triple-lip sealing to avoid the need for maintenance in tough agricultural applications". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Bearing system boosts tyre shredding efficiency from Baldor UK: "The Dodge Grip Tight adapter-style bearing has a mechanical maintenance feature that loosens it by simply turning a nut".
 
In September 2007, we covered the news from Baldor UK concerning its Dodge Grip Tight adapter ball bearings - take a look at Ball bearings tolerate washdowns which says: "Dodge Grip Tight adapter ball bearings reduce equipment lifecycle costs in washdown-duty zones of food, pharmaceutical and chemical processing plants".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Ondrives/Rino Industries, Seals are suitable for most applications, as well as Chains help harness hydro power from Rexnord UK, and Coatings to improve performance from Schaeffler (UK).
