What is the normal bearing clearance permitted at the horizontal axis of the shaft for the bearing shown in the illustration? Illustration MO-0121 |
A) The tolerances established are dependent on machining processes used and will vary amongst manufacturers. |
B) The normal play on both sides of the shaft will be one tenth of a millimeter. |
C) The clearance on one side of the shaft at the axis will be one twentieth of a millimeter. |
D) The clearance is determined by the thickness of the hydrodynamic wedge formed and is not usually measured while underway. |
