If the 70mm shaft is rotating, it should be a shrink fit to the bearing inner race or else it will rattle around and wear the shaft.

69.97mm sounds like a worn shaft. Maybe you can get away with a line-to-line fit and very tight axial compression with a locknut.
 
Actually , the bearing install on shaft without sleeve.

Bearing type: spherical roller bearing
Bearing No. 22214E/C3

My question about diameter shaft what is min/max to be tight fit with bearing?

I attached similar picture of split bearing but it’s without adapter beqring directly install on shaft.

Q2- how to inspect bearing housing?

Q3- how to determine life of spherical roller bearing to avoid any breakdown?

Q4- what do you think the reason for worn shaft and bearing inner race found loose?
The issue happened 10 days after preventive maintenance performed ( oil changed) vibration and noise observed.

Q5- what is the best method to repair shaft ? If the shaft reduce 0.2 mm


 

Q1 and Q3 reference bearing manufactures manuals etc

Q2 Use Machinist measuring tools micrometers or Plastigauge / SKF or other bearing suppliers will list housing dimensions

Q4 Without details pictures etc, It could be anything.

Q5 Options: New shaft use adapter sleeves or Belzona ( use and opinions very / personally I don't care for it) There are other options, but this is what I thought of first.
