Q

What kind of bearings are in cam-type bearings?

A

Plain or rolling doesn’t matter.

17
Q

Advantage to spherical bearings?

A

Accommodates misalignment

High radial or combined radial and thrust load.

18
Q

What degree do spherical roller bearings be with no effect?

A

.5 - 2

19
Q

Advantage of tapered bearings?

A

High thrust loading

20
Q

A

Faces thrust
Can only take thrust in one direction.

21
Q

Inner race of tapered bearings?

A

Cone

22
Q

Outer race of tapered bearings?

A

Cup
