The ball size was selected from common nominal dimensioned balls, knowing that we would need to at least remove a minimum amount of material to clean up the worn races, instead of choosing a random number, we went for nice fractional size as a starting point. At the moment, we are having...
Thanks for the information, I will adjust my design using the same radius for the inner and outer raceway Gothic arch profiles. I was planning on designing the axial clearance into the inner race by adjusting the distance between the two sides of the arch at their tangent point of contact with...
Hi,
I am looking for the race profile/contour for four-point contact bearings. From reading through other threads I am aware that most use a Gothic arch design for the race, but I am looking for what the radius of one side of the arch would be relative to the ball diameter. I have the axial...
