The so-called bearing clearance, also known as bearing clearance, refers to the amount of movement when the bearing is not installed on the shaft or bearing box, and one side of its inner or outer ring is fixed, and then the side of the bearing clearance is not fixed to do radial or axial movement.According to the direction of movement, it can be divided into radial clearance and axial clearance.The operating clearance (called working clearance) has an impact on the rolling fatigue life, temperature rise, noise, vibration and other performance of the bearing.

Common clearance adjustment methods

1. The backlash of cylindrical and oval bearing bush can be adjusted by manual grinding and scraping or the method of trimming and scraping after dividing the face with cushion in the bearing.2, the top gap of cylindrical and oval bearing bush can be adjusted by manual scraping or when the situation allows.3, for many oil wedge fixed bearing bush, in principle, it is not allowed to repair scraping and adjust the bearing bush clearance, the clearance should be replaced when the new tile.4. For multi-wedge tilting bearing bush, scraping tile is not allowed. When the gap is not suitable, the tile should be replaced.For the tile with adjustable thickness, the tile quantity can be adjusted by adding a stainless steel pad under the tile back adjustment block, or by reducing the thickness of the adjustment block.Pay attention to the multi-wedge tilting bearing bush, the thickness error between the same group of tiles should be less than 0.01mm.
