Internal clearance of a ball bearing affects life, noise, vibration and
temperature generation, so it is extremely important to select the optimum
radial clearance for each application. The different types of internal
clearance of ball bearing are:
radial clearance; axial clearance; and moment clearance.
1. Radial Clearance (Gr)
2. Axial Clearance (Gt)
3. Moment Clearance (θ)
Radial clearance is the displacement generated while securing the inner
ring and moving the outer ring in the radial direction.Axial clearance is the displacement generated while securing the inner
ring and moving the outer ring in the axial direction.Moment Clearance is the angular displacement generated while securing the
outer ring and tilting the inner ring.
