The same design seemed to be considered OK for a supercharger (which would be running at 100,000 rpm and would be expected to last as long as an engine) My first guess was that the ring should be 1mm smaller than the collective OD of the bearings, and that the flex would take up wear for some time. The failure mode that concerns me most is actually fatigue of the outer ring due to the ocntinued flexing. Wear of the inner shaft would happen much faster, but those are an off-the-shelf and cheap part. -- atp The idea that there is no such thing as objective truth is, quite simply, wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
