EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TOFROM CONVERSATION
QUESTION / CONTEXTi have a Oil-Embedded 841 Bronze Sleeve Bearing with an od of .627 that need put in a stainless steel block, how should i dimension the hole in the stainless steel block
RETAINED REPLY
*Ø0.6245 ±0.0005 in
Best drawing callout: Ø0.6245 ±0.0005
Acceptable housing range: 0.6240–0.6250
Resulting interference: about 0.001–0.003 in with the bearing OD tolerance shown as +.000 / -.001. [embedded media omitted]
Put a small lead-in chamfer on the hole so you do not shave the bearing during install.
Press it in, do not hammer it.
Because it is stainless, I would stay near the middle of that tolerance, not the tight extreme, unless the bearing maker gives a more specific fit for your wall thickness and load.
*Ø0.625 ±0.001
