Eccentricity

Eccentricity is the gradual reduction in the thickness of the bearing wall, starting at its apex and ending approximately 9.65 mm from the parting lines. It is a key parameter that influences the uniform distribution of loads between the bearing and the shaft around which it rotates. Eccentricity is crucial for the proper functioning and longevity of the bearing because it ensures that the bearing will operate efficiently and withstand common wear and tear. In the context of bearings and transmission technologies, it is important to ensure that eccentricity is properly set to minimize the risk of damage or premature component failure.
