    Double Row Angular Contact Bearing Axial Load Capacity

    I did not specify the life or the RPM, because I want to values to be equivalent to what the bearings are rated for. So if the dynamic radial load rating is based on 1,000,000 revolutions then I would like to know what the axial load rating is for the same life and RPM. For Static loading...

    linear cylindrical bushing

    The 2:1 ratio is used with the length of bearing to the distance of the load from center of the bearing to prevent "stick slip". That ratio doesn't help with clearance. Many linear bearing suppliers list out both a tight clearance and a "compensated" or "free running" clearance. Which one...

    Double Row Angular Contact Bearing Axial Load Capacity

    I often run into applications where the system was designed using double row angular contact bearings having very little axial load and mostly radial loads. But then sales finds a application where it is primarily an axial load condition, and they ask "how much axial load can this system...

    modeling basic vs meadian value

    I just read the following in ASME Y14.5-2009 ..."The general opinion is that CAD modeling should be done to the mean." Later it states "The CAD model should be drawn to the mean and BASIC dimensions. Where plus and minus tolerancing is used, the toelrance should be bilateral; not unilateral...
