grades are appropriate to spherical
plain bearings. Table .These recommendations are based onthe considerations described above
and have been confirmed in a wide
variety of bearing applications.The ISO

The tolerances given in brackets may be chosen for very heavily loaded bearings. If chosen, it is necessary to checkthat the residual operating clearance is sufficient for correct performance of the bearing or whether a bearing with
larger clearance must be used 3 1) 4 These recommendations do not apply to bearings of series GEG which have a bore diameter tolerance to H7 and
are normally mounted on shaft seatings machined to m7. If, for mounting reasons the shaft is machined to toler-
ance f7, it should be hardened as relative movements of the shaft with respect to the bearing bore will take place
and wear may result
