Solid cages made from polyamide PA66 are produced using the injection moulding process ➤ Figure. As a result, cage types can generally be realised that allow designs with particularly high load carrying capacity. The elasticity and low mass of polyamide are favourable under shock type bearing loads, high accelerations and decelerations and tilting of the bearing rings in relation to each other. Polyamide cages have very good sliding and emergency running characteristics.

In principle, corrosion-resistant steels to ISO 683-17 can be used. These bearings have the prefix S. For higher requirements, it may be advisable to use the high performance steels Cronidur and Cronitect.

Cage pockets, which are separated from each other by bars and are uniformly distributed around the circumference of the cage, maintain the spacing of the rolling elements relative to each other and ensure the distribution of load. In addition, the bars prevent sliding friction between adjacent rolling elements and guide the rolling elements parallel to the bearing axis in the load-free zone. In the case of cylindrical and needle roller bearings, they additionally prevent skewing of the rolling elements by guiding the rolling elements parallel to the bearing axis.

Bearingsearch by dimensions SKF

For all rolling bearings in the range from d = 20 mm to d = 480 mm (excluding double direction axial bearings), the bore code is formed by dividing the dimension of the bearing bore by 5.

The radial internal clearance can alter considerably if there is a substantial temperature differential between the inner and outer ring ➤ Equation.

The prefix normally identifies individual bearing parts of complete bearings (in certain cases, this may also be part of the basic designation) ➤ Figure and ➤ Figure.

The advantages of the special coating Corrotect are all-round corrosion protection, including the turned surfaces of chamfers and radii ➤ Figure. It also gives long-term prevention of rust penetration beneath seals and smaller bright spots are protected against corrosion by the cathodic protection effect. In comparison with uncoated parts, operating life is significantly increased by the corrosion protection. There is no decrease in load carrying capacity (such as occurs in the use of corrosion-resistant steels). It is therefore theoretically possible to replace uncoated bearings by coated bearings of the same dimensions. However, it is advisable to check the suitability for the specific application in advance since, for example, abrasion may occur. During storage, there is no need to use organic preservatives.

In the load-free zone, the rolling elements are no longer driven by the inner or outer ring. As a result, they fall behind relative to the direction of rotation of the rings. Cages ensure that the spacing between the rolling elements is maintained, even in the load-free zone.

If high temperature synthetic materials are used for seals and greases, it must be noted that the particularly high performance materials containing fluoride may give off harmful gases and vapours when heated to approx. +300 °C and above. This may occur, for example, if a welding torch is used in the dismantling of a bearing.

These cages are made from metal, laminated fabric or plastic ➤ Figure. They can be identified from the bearing designation.

Be sure to consult your owner’s manual, a repair guide, an AutoZoner at a store near you, or a licensed, professional mechanic for vehicle-specific repair information. Refer to the service manual for specific diagnostic, repair and tool information for your particular vehicle. Always chock your wheels prior to lifting a vehicle. Always disconnect the negative battery cable before servicing an electrical application on the vehicle to protect its electrical circuits in the event that a wire is accidentally pierced or grounded. Use caution when working with automotive batteries. Sulfuric acid is caustic and can burn clothing and skin or cause blindness. Always wear gloves and safety glasses and other personal protection equipment, and work in a well-ventilated area. Should electrolyte get on your body or clothing, neutralize it immediately with a solution of baking soda and water. Do not wear ties or loose clothing when working on your vehicle.

DIN 616 describes dimension plans for radial and axial bearings. An overview of ISO and DIN rolling bearing standards is given in DIN 611:2010-05.

Keep in mind that low PSI numbers on any combination of cylinders almost always indicate a problem that should be fixed sooner rather than later. Should you need to have a mechanic perform the diagnosis, you can always choose from our list of Preferred Shops in your area that can help you diagnose any engine-related troubleshooting. Low PSI numbers almost always indicate a problem that should be fixed sooner rather than later.

For very thin-walled housings and light metal housings, the reduction in the radial internal clearance must be determined by mounting trials.

In contrast to Cronidur, the more economical alternative Cronitect has nitrogen introduced into the structure by means of a surface layer hardening process.

With various bearing types, the radial internal clearance sr and the axial internal clearance sa are dependent on each other. Guide values for the correlation between radial and axial internal clearance are shown for some bearing types ➤ Table.

The operating clearance is determined on a mounted bearing still warm from operation. It is defined as the amount by which the shaft can be moved in a radial direction from one extreme position to the other.

How easy it is to perform the test rests solely on the ability to perform the above tasks. A compression test can be done on either a hot or cold engine, or an engine that has been running or not running that you are attempting to diagnose problems with.

The dimensional and running accuracy of rolling bearings corresponds to tolerance class Normal. For bearings with increased accuracy, the tolerances are restricted to values in the classes 6, 5, 4 and 2. Tolerance tables for the individual tolerance classes ➤ Table to ➤ Table.

For bearings without an inner ring, the enveloping circle Fw is used. This is the inner inscribed circle of the rolling elements in clearance-free contact with the outer raceway ➤ Figure.

Deviation of a mid-range size (out of two-point sizes) of shaft washer bore diameter in any cross-section from its nominal size

The operating clearance is derived from the radial internal clearance and the change in the radial internal clearance as a result of interference fit and thermal influences in the mounted condition.

The designation for the bearing series comprises numbers and letters or letters and numbers. It indicates the type of bearing, the diameter series and, in many cases, the width series too ➤ Figure, ➤ Figure and ➤ Figure. The diameter and width series are described in ➤ section.

High temperatures are critical especially in the case of seals made from fluoro rubber (FKM, FPM, e. g. Viton®) or greases containing fluoride, such as the rolling bearing greases Arcanol TEMP200 and greases to GA11. If high temperatures are unavoidable, attention must be paid to the valid safety data sheet for the specific fluoride-containing material, which can be obtained upon request.

For drawn cup needle roller bearings with open ends HK, drawn cup needle roller bearings with closed end BK and aligning needle roller bearings PNA and RPNA, the chamfer dimensions deviate from DIN 620-6. The lower limit values for r are given in the product tables.

In the dimension plans, one bearing bore is allocated several outside diameters and width dimensions. In this way, it is possible to design several bearings of the same type that, for the same bore, exhibit different load carrying capacities. The development of new bearing series and individual new rolling bearings in accordance with the dimension plans has considerable advantages for users and manufacturers.

The suffix defines special designs and features ➤ Figure and ➤ Figure. The prefix and suffix describe other features of the bearing but are not standardised in all cases and may vary in use depending on the manufacturer.

For rolling bearings with a tapered bore, the standardised taper is 1:12. This corresponds to a half taper angle (α/2 = 2°23′9,4″); basic taper angle α = 4°46′18,8″. An exception is spherical roller bearings of the dimension series 40, 41 and 42 (the taper in this case is 1:30).

An operating temperature of +70 °C is regarded as a normal operating temperature. Further temperature data in the product descriptions must be observed.

In many cases, adequate operating life values are only achieved at high temperatures through the use of special greases. In these cases, it must also be checked whether seals made from especially heat-resistant materials must be used. The operating limit of normal contact seals is +100 °C.

The radial internal clearance applies to bearings with an inner ring and is determined on the unmounted bearing. It is defined as the amount by which the inner ring can be moved in a radial direction from one extreme position to the other in relation to the outer ring ➤ Figure.

Understanding a compression test procedure is also understanding what you are trying to achieve, and that is consistency between the numbers of each cylinder, and looking for the outlier, or outliers. If you measure the tire pressure of 4 tires on your car, and the measurement of three of them is 32PSI, but one of them is 15PSI, you immediately know you have an issue with that one tire, and further testing or inspection is needed to determine why. A compression test is much the same.

Deviation of minimum circumscribed size of effective width (inner subunit assembled with a master outer ring) from its nominal size

A compression tester can be purchased or rented and includes a set of adapters that will screw into the spark plug hole. The adapter has a built in Schrader valve to trap pressure and a special gauge to show the compression readings. The Shrader valve in the adapter traps the compression in the gauge so you can do the compression test without an assistant. The gauge will also have a release button, which releases the trapped pressure after each reading.

Deviation of a minimum circumscribed size of outer ring width, between two opposite lines, in any longitudinal section which includes the outer ring outside surface axis, from its nominal size

Through the use of special bearings made from HNS (High Nitrogen Steel, supplied by agreement), it is possible to achieve adequate service life even under the most challenging conditions (high temperatures, moisture, contamination).

If your engine loses compression on one or multiple cylinders, problems will follow. From a misfire to a massive reduction in power, there are some severe and complicated problems that can arise. A compression test is by far one of the most basic engine test procedures and starting point to understand exactly what your engine is doing, and where the problem may be.

Solid cages made from metal are used where there are requirements for high cage strength and at high temperatures. Solid cages are also used if the cage must be guided on ribs. Rib-guided cages for bearings running at high speeds are made in many cases from light materials, such as light metal or laminated fabric, in order to achieve low inertia forces.

Continue the process of inserting the adapter, cranking the engine, and recording the results for all your vehicle’s cylinders. If one of the readings is significantly lower, it can indicate a problem with that single cylinder. Multiple low numbers can be a sign of other engine issues. Remember that what you are looking for is consistency. Cylinder pressures should not fall outside of 15-20% of each other, meaning, if you run a test on a V6 engine and come up with 150, 155, 150, 145, 135, and 130, this would fall within an acceptable level of consistency. If you run the test and come up with 150, 155, 90, 90, 135, and 130, this would indicate an issue as the highest pressure cylinder is significantly higher than the lowest pressure cylinder.

Nationalbearingsize chart

A further means of distinguishing between cages is their guidance method ➤ Figure. Most cages are guided by the rolling elements and do not have a suffix for the guidance method. If guidance is by the bearing outer ring, the suffix A is used. Cages that are guided on the inner ring have the suffix B.

In addition to the standardised tolerance classes, super precision bearings are also produced to the tolerance classes P4S, SP and UP. These tolerances are listed in the relevant product descriptions.

When using oil lubrication, additives in the oil can impair the cage operating life. Aged oil can also impair the cage operating life at high temperatures, so attention must be paid to compliance with the oil change intervals.

A lack of compression is generally caused by 4 things – worn or damaged piston rings, damaged valves, improper valve timing, or a blown head gasket. The following can help pin-point possible problems.

A compression test is simple to learn and only requires a few basic tools. From a mechanical perspective, you will need to know how to properly remove the spark plugs on the vehicle or equipment you are testing and properly disable the ignition system and fuel system, the latter if the vehicle is fuel injected. For carbureted engines, you can choose to disable the fuel supply and run the carburetor out of gas, but most simply perform the test without doing this.

The operating clearance value is dependent on the operating and installation conditions of the bearing. A larger operating clearance is, for example, necessary if heat is transferred via the shaft, the shaft undergoes deflection or if misalignment occurs. An operating clearance smaller than CN should only be used in special cases, for example in high precision bearing arrangements. Normal operating clearance is achieved with an internal clearance of CN or, for larger bearings, more usually C3 if the recommended shaft and housing tolerances are maintained.

Cages made from glass fibre reinforced polyamide PA66 are suitable for continuous temperatures up to +120 °C. For higher operating temperatures, plastics such as PA46 or PEEK can be used.

Thin anti-corrosion coating systems of 0,5 μm – 3 μm and 2 μm – 5 μm are available for bearing applications. Various Corrotect variants with coating thicknesses ＞ 5 μm also exist, which can be applied as necessary. The Corrotect coatings thus offer corrosion protection times – as a function of the coating variant and coating thickness – of ≧ 720 h against base metal corrosion (in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9227).

In Germany, the bearing designations are standardised in DIN 623-1. These designations are also used in many other countries.

Schaeffler rolling bearings fulfil the requirements for fatigue strength, wear resistance, hardness, toughness and structural stability. The material used for the rings and rolling elements is generally a low-alloy, through hardening chromium steel of high purity. For bearings subjected to considerable shock loads and reversed bending stresses, case hardening steel is also used (supplied by agreement). The results of research as well as practical experience confirm that bearings made from the steel currently used as standard can achieve their endurance limit if loads are not excessively high and the lubrication and cleanliness conditions are favourable.

Rolling bearing cages are subdivided into sheet metal and solid section cages. The cages are predominantly made from steel and, for some bearings, from brass ➤ Figure. In comparison with solid section cages made from metal, sheet metal cages are of lower mass. Since a sheet metal cage only fills a small proportion of the gap between the inner and outer ring, lubricant can easily reach the interior of the bearing and is held on the cage. In general, a sheet steel cage is only included in the bearing designation if it is not defined as a standard version of the bearing.

The intermediate sizes, such as bore diameter d = 22, 28 and d = 32 mm for example, are also given with an oblique as /22, /28 and /32.

The dimensions which determine the installation space are standardised. Standardisation is not, however, applied to the internal dimensions, such as the size and quantity of the rolling elements for example. The main dimensions of metric rolling bearings are defined in the following ISO dimension plans:

Examples of the composition of designations on the basis of their definition in accordance with ➤ Figure are shown on ➤ Figure.

Tapered roller bearings can generally also be classified in the dimension plans to ISO 355 ➤ Figure. The dimension series are designated in these by a combination of three symbols, e. g. 3FE ➤ Figure.

Caution: If you do have an assistant, make sure he/she knows NOT to spin the engine until you’re absolutely ready, and always keep your hands clear of the belts and pulleys. Remember to have paper and something to write with so you can record your readings as you go. Do some research and know how the cylinders are numbered (firing order) so you can write the readings in order – you can find this information online if you don’t know. Consider using an assistant or remote starter if you’re having trouble keeping track of the reading while turning the key.

At this point, you can listen to how the engine spins to see if one cylinder picks up speed while the engine is spinning – if so, one of the cylinders could have low compression.

Width and diameter series are described using numbers. In the case of radial bearings in accordance with DIN 616 and ISO 15, these are as follows:

Circular radial run-out of outer ring outside surface of assembled bearing with respect to datum, i.e. axis, established from the inner ring bore surface

Finding the fuel pump fuse or relay is easier on some vehicles than others. Once you believe you’ve disabled the fuel pump, verify that you’ve disabled the fuel system by starting the engine until pressure is no longer in the fuel rail. Unless removing the fuse or relay also disabled the injectors and the ignition system, the engine will start initially after the fuel pump has been deactivated but then it will spin without starting as the residual fuel pressure is depleted.

➤ Figure describes as an example the structure of the designation for a metric tapered roller bearing (dimension series to ISO 355, designation to ISO 10317). The 3 indicates the contact angle range. The first letter (F in this case) indicates a diameter series. Each diameter series has a certain ratio D/d (outside diameter to bore diameter). The second letter (E in this case) indicates a width series. Each width series has a certain ratio of bearing width T to the height of the bearing cross-section. The addition of the letter T (for tapered roller bearing) at the start and a three-digit number at the end for the bearing bore diameter in mm (in this case 120) gives the complete designation of a tapered roller bearing (e. g. T3FE 120 ➤ Figure).

An extensive modular coating concept currently offers a wide range of surface improvements aimed at increasing the performance and rating life of bearing components. The “added value in the form of coatings” thus provided, is now established as a standard procedure for a wide variety of Schaeffler components.

Using the ratchet, any necessary extensions, and the spark plug socket, screw all the spark plugs out. This is important because you don’t want other compression strokes slowing the engine spin during the compression testing process.

International standards are usually valid for the main dimensions and running accuracy of rolling bearings. Unless specified otherwise, the tolerances for radial rolling bearings correspond to ISO 492:2014 and, for axial rolling bearings, to ISO 199:2014. Information on which bearings are supplied with which tolerances is provided in the relevant product chapters.

The radial internal clearance groups are defined in DIN 620-4 and ISO 5753-1 and are described in DIN 620-4 by means of codes that comprise the capital letter C and a number. ISO 5753-1 designates the groups by the word "Group" and a number ➤ Figure and ➤ Table.

Systems are free from Cr(VI), provide effective protection against corrosion and, as result, extend the useful life of Schaeffler components. In isolated cases, the dimensional changes brought about by the coating must be taken into account in a further processing operation.

For lower press-in forces, the surface of the parts should be lightly greased, the tolerances are increased by the thickness of the coating.

The premise of a compression test is to test each cylinder to see in measured PSI exactly how much compression that particular cylinder is producing. From a single piston lawn mower engine, to a diesel or V8 engine, the process is entirely the same – measure what the cylinder is producing in PSI.

Caution: If you do have an assistant, make sure he/she knows NOT to spin the engine until you’re absolutely ready, and always keep your hands clear of the belts and pulleys. Have paper and something to write with so you can record your readings as you go. Do some research and know how the cylinders are numbered so you can write the readings in order – you can find this information online if you don’t know.

Choose the appropriate gauge for either gas or diesel. A diesel compression test typically requires the removal of the glow plugs and a special adapter for that engine. Since diesel has a higher compression rating, it uses a special gauge. Screw the correct compression adapter into the glow plug or spark plug hole of the cylinder you plan to test first – it’s good to start with cylinder #1, but you can do it in any order – just write down your readings next to the correct cylinder number.

For fuel injected cars, you will need to disable the fuel system. Begin by checking your fuse panel details, either in the owner’s manual or under the fuse box cover and disable the fuel pump by removing the fuel pump fuse or the fuel pump relay if the vehicle is fuel injected. Carbureted engines with mechanical fuel pumps don’t have a fuel pump fuse and will not need to have the fueling disabled unless you choose to do so.

Circular axial run-out of inner ring face with respect to datum, i.e. axis, established from the inner ring bore surface

Each rolling bearing has a designation that clearly indicates the type, dimensions, tolerances and internal clearance, if necessary with other important features.

Rolling bearings are not resistant to corrosion by water or agents con­taining alkalis or acids but are often exposed to these corrosion-inducing agents. In these applications, corrosion protection is therefore a decisive factor in achieving a long operating life of the bearings.

Truckbearing dimension lookup

A compression test is performed by then cranking the engine. This will then allow the gauge to read multiple compression strokes from that cylinder. Allow the engine to spin until the gauge has received at least six “puffs”, then release the key. If the compression gauge is working properly, the needle will indicate the amount of max compression.

Bearings that have the same standardised designation are interchangeable with each other. In the case of separable bearings, it cannot always be ensured that individual parts with the same origin can be interchanged with each other.

The permissible temperature for sealed bearings is dependent on the requirements for the operating life of the grease filling and on the action of the contact seals. Sealed bearings are greased with specially tested, high performance, high quality greases. These greases can withstand +120 °C for short periods. At or above continuous temperatures of +70 °C, a reduction in the operating life of standard greases with a lithium soap base must be expected.

Under normal operating conditions, the cage design defined as the standard cage is generally suitable. Standard cages, which may differ within a bearing series according to the bearing size, are described in the product chapters. Under special operating conditions, a cage that is suitable for the specific conditions must be selected.

Both steels are clearly superior to conventional corrosion-resistant steels for rolling bearings in terms of corrosion resistance and fatigue strength.

In the case of bearings that are separable and can be swivelled, such as tapered roller, spherical roller and some cylindrical roller bearings, cages prevent rolling elements from falling out of the bearing. The rolling element set and cage can thus be mounted and dismounted as a complete unit.

A larger radial internal clearance should be used for shafts running at high speeds, since adequate thermal compensation between the bearing, shaft and housing does not occur in this situation. ΔsT can, in this case, be significantly higher in this case than for continuous operation.

Detailed information on the modular coating concept and individual coating systems can be found in Technical Product Information TPI 186 “Higher Performance Capacity Through the Use of Coatings”. This publication can be requested from Schaeffler.

Your engine’s ability to produce power and run smoothly and seamlessly boils down to 4 major variables, those being fuel/air mixture, spark (in a gas engine), timing, and compression. Compression is the ability for the engine’s pistons and valves to take the air and fuel being ingested and do just that – compress it – either to the point in a diesel engine that the compressed fuel simply ignites on its own, or in a gas engine, where spark ignites the mixture using a spark plug.

For increased performance requirements, highly corrosion-resistant, nitrogen-alloyed martensitic HNS steels are available, such as Cronidur and Cronitect.

Theoretical interference of the fitted parts with firm seating. The theoretical oversize of the fitted parts with a firm seating is determined from the mean deviations and the upper and lower deviations of the tolerance zones of the fitted parts reduced by 1/3 of their acceptable value. The amount of surface smoothing during assembly must be subtracted from this.

The calculation module BEARINX Shaft Calculation, which is available from Schaeffler free of charge, can be used to calculate and analyse the operating clearance.

Things not running quite right with your vehicle? Feel like you're driving on a rough road or using more gas than normal?

When performing the test, you don’t want the engine to start during the test. With older vehicles using a distributor, you can disable the coil by disconnecting the positive terminal of the coil or unplugging the coil or coils completely. Avoid simply removing the coil-to-distributor wire as the coil is still charged and can still achieve a grounded spark and shock someone. If you have to remove the spark plug wires, first know how the cylinders are numbered and mark the wires with tape or a Sharpie or both to make sure you don’t cross them while putting them back later. On vehicles with Coil-On-Plug (most modern vehicles) you will simply need to disconnect the coil’s wiring harness as you remove each spark plug, or, you may be able to find a fuse that controls the ignition system.

Rolling bearings are heat treated such that, depending on the bearing type, they are generally dimensionally stable up to +120 °C (certain bearings up to +150 °C). Operating temperatures above +150 °C require special heat treatment. Bearings treated in this way are available by agreement and are identified by the suffix S1, S2, S3 or S4 to DIN 623-1 ➤ Table.

Once you have a valid reading, record the cylinder number and PSI rating. Most gas engine’s compression should be between 125 and 175 PSI while a diesel will generally fall between 275 and 400 PSI. Remember to write down each of your findings. If one or more cylinders looks to be way off in PSI, you can re-run the test again just to check.

Gather your tools, including insulated gloves (or nitrile) and safety goggles to protect yourself from hot parts and oil sprays. Keep in mind if working around a hot engine to be careful of hot engine parts like the exhaust manifolds. You will also need a good quality ratchet, an extension or two (a long one with a “wiggle joint” is a good idea on V6 or V8 engines), and a suitable spark plug socket – note that while a regular socket may fit, it’s best to use an actual spark plug socket designed to remove spark plugs. You will need a notepad to jot down your readings and label each cylinder appropriately on your notes.

The dimension plans are valid for different bearing types. Standard rolling bearings of different types can thus be manufactured to the same external dimensions. As a result, a designer working on the same design envelope can make a selection between bearings of several types with the same external dimensions.

The radial internal clearance is reduced due to the fit as a result of expansion of the inner ring and contraction of the outer ring ➤ Equation.
