I'm not sure I can get an Oillite to fit, especially after cleaning.

Bushing Clearance. Typically bearing internal clearance is defined as the total distance through which one ring can be moved radially (radial internal clearance) or axially (axial internal clearance) in relation to the other ring under a defined measuring load. In the case of bushings, this is not so.

Since bushings are of single piece construction, any clearance found would be from the radial movement of the shaft that rides within the bushing. Aug 13, A general rule of thumb for bronze journal bushings is" clearance on the diameter per inch of shaft diameter up to the first 5" or so.

On larger shafts, less. I'd make the bushing ID about" oversize (after press fit) and grease groove it appropriately. Use SAE bronze. High-Load Food IndustryOil-Embedded Thrust Bearings. Made of bearing bronze and embedded with NSF registered H1 oil, these bearings can tackle high-load applications in food plants, such as bottling and filling lines. 27 rowsIsostatic Century Bronze Bearings / Bushings.

Standard stock products. SAE / CA. If the operating temperature is higher, it is expected that for every 20 °C temperature increase the operating clearance decreases by 0, mm for PTFE composite bushings. The actual operating clearance can be increased or decreased within the recommended limits by matching shaft and housing bores having appropriate diameter values within the specified limits. Clearance, min. in. Bronze Base Iron Base Running Clearance Recommended Press Fits Table Running Clearance Proper running clearance for bearings depends, to a great extent, on the particular item.

Only minimum recommended clearances for oil-impregnated bearings. Plain Cast Bronze Bushings. National Bronze Manufacturing stocks an inventory of plain bronze sleeve bushings in industry standard sizes. Our standard sleeve bearings are manufactured out of continuous cast C Bearing Bronze. Plain bushings are also. RUNNING CLEARANCE: RECOMMENDED PRESS FITS: Shaft Size in. Clearance min. in. Outside Dia. in. Press Fit, in. Minimum: Maximum: up to up to to to to to over to to - - over to Jul 06, I need the clearance between the ID of the bushing and the OD of the dowel pin to be as small as possible.

I can only lube the bushing once at assembly and then never again. I would prefer that the maximum clearance between the dowel pin OD and the bushing ID is not over" but I may be able to get away with".
