RESIST ENORMOUS PRESSURE.
small Steel Halls Cannot lie Crushed
by Ordinary Mechanical
Devices.

The resisting power of steel balls to
pressure has never been actually de-
termined, and recent tests reported to
the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers leave the question still in
doubt. At these tests balls were
procured of sizes ranging from one
half to one inch in diameter from six
at first made to test the balls by
crushing between hardened steel
plates. Difficulty was experienced,
however, in procuring steel so hard
that 1t would not indent under the
pressure to which it was subjected
in contact with the balls and the
plan was adopted of placing three
balls in a row in n special holder,
which kept them in line axially.
Pressure was then brought to bear
upon the two outer balls, eventually
crushing the middle one.
After this series OF tests was com
pleted steel was found that an
swered the purpose for testing the
balls between fiat surfaces and an
other line OF tests was conducted with
the balls between two fat plates of
this steel. A singular fact is that
in the first series nearly all the balls
were broken by the formation with
in the ball of n conical wedge which
was gradually forced toward the cen
ter of the ball until the latter was
split. The base of the cone was ap-
proximately circular, with its center
at the point at which the crushing
force acted.
