How to install UK series bearings in bearing housings
Thread Content
Is it to simply knock the bearing into the bearing housing? When using a set screw, is it necessary to measure the installation clearance when locking the bearing to the shaft? Is there any standard for this, or can it be simply tightened? I’ve never done this before; it was always the UKP that came with the bearing housing and could be replaced directly. Now only UK bearings are available, so the bearing housings need to be reused
Is it necessary to adjust the perpendicularity between the shaft and the bearing after this type of spherical bearing is installed?
Just strike it inside the bearing housing; there’s no need to re-measure the clearance for a single-row new bearing – just tighten it directly
