It is obtained on the basis of the contact pressure on the spherical surfaces. The dynamic load capacity is also used for calculating the life of spherical bushings.The recommended value of bushing load is obtained 405060728582100120142165100192110214---681012151720253035404550607080901001101201401601802002202402602804568101215172025303540455060708090100110120140160180200220240260280300Table 5 Radial internal clearance of GE type (Steel-on-steel)unit: μm■FitdNominal bore dia.mmRadial internal clearanceshown in Tables 7 and 8.
