Radial and Axial Stiffness Properties
Notes:
1. Unless indicated, all values under load capacity apply to Cantilever and Double End Bearings.
2. Stiffness of bearing is rated in inches of deflection per pound of load.
3.* This data applies to standard cantilever bearings loaded at the mid-point of the unsupported half, at 0 degrees rotation.
4.* The total stiffness of a pair of tandem mounted cantilever bearings connected very stiffly in a mechanical system may be determined by dividing the below values by three.
5.* For double ended bearings of the same sizes and types as below, divide the below values by two.
Lc = Load in compression
Lt = Load in tension
