Each preset bearing is supplied from the manufacturer with a specified (unmounted) internal clearance or bench end play (BEP). This BEP is chosen to provide the desired mounted setting range for the given application requirements. The mounted bearing setting range is determined from this BEP based strictly on the effect of shaft and housing fits. Typically only one tight fitted (shaft or housing) requirement is applied (i.e. on rotating member). This results in expected mounted setting ranges of less than 0.008”. The mounted setting range of interchangeable component assemblies is typically wider than that for “matched” spacer assemblies. To apply preset assemblies in an application, simply mount and ensure proper clamping of the bearing components through the spacers.
