🔍 Key Concepts

• Radial bearing clearance (difference between bore diameter and shaft diameter, shown as g, g1, and G in the illustration) • How normal play is given in the clearance table (pay attention to units: millimeters) • Distinction between total play across the diameter and clearance on one side of the shaft at the horizontal axis

💭 Think About

• From the table of principal clearances, identify the numerical value labeled as normal play that applies at section B where g, g1, and G are shown. • Decide whether that value represents total clearance across the shaft or only one side, then convert it to the clearance on one side at the horizontal axis. • Match that one‑side value, in millimeters, to the most appropriate statement among the four answer choices.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure the dimensions are all in millimeters as stated at the bottom of the illustration. • Confirm whether g1 = min. 0.10 refers to the minimum clearance on one side or the total radial clearance. • Verify which choice correctly states a numerical clearance value rather than a general statement about manufacturing or hydrodynamic wedge thickness.

The normal play on both sides of the shaft will be one tenth of a millimeter.

The tolerances established are dependent on machining processes used and will vary amongst manufacturers.

The clearance on one side of the shaft at the axis will be one twentieth of a millimeter.

The clearance is determined by the thickness of the hydrodynamic wedge formed and is not usually measured while underway.
