root of tooth. Spalling area of relatively constant depth. Possible additional
incipient cracks across flank. Partial, damage reaches tip range of tooth
resulting in tooth tip fracture.

Occurrence normally on operation with oil of low viscosity and high oil
temperature, and the same cause as for formation of pitting.
Conclusion:
ATTENTION: At detection of spalling, renew the gear set.
For tolerated pitting and spalling, see chapter progressive pitting.
