Bearings
apex
Machine tools; Bearings
The common point on the axis of a bearing where angular lines of each of the various tapered roller surfaces meet.
axial internal clearance
Machine tools; Bearings
In a ball bearing assembly, the axial internal clearance is the total maximum possible movement parallel to the bearing axis or the inner ring, in relation to the outer ring.
axial clearance
Machine tools; Bearings
The gap between the toe face of the head section and the inside surface of the inner case.
anti-rust or anti-corrosion additives
Machine tools; Bearings
These additives help prevent oxidation of metal by displacing water from metal surfaces. They plate to metal with a polarized effect to give the metal an internal “umbrella,” helping to deter ...
anti-oxidant
Machine tools; Bearings
An additive that is usually incorporated in a relatively small proportion to retard oxidation of lubricants, including greases and gear lubricants. It is an oxidation inhibitor.
anti-friction bearing
Machine tools; Bearings
These bearing types use rolling contact to cut power loss resulting from friction.
