1/ BEFORE INITIATING A REPAIR PROCEDURE TO USE AN OVERSIZE BEARING,

APPROVAL FOR MODIFYING AND REIDENTIFYING THE BEARING HOUSING MUST
BE OBTAINED FROM THE COGNIZANT ENGINEERING AUTHORITY.
2/ REFER TO NAS0331 FOR INSTALLATION PROCEDURE AND STAKING FORCES.

REQUIREMENTS:

1. MATERIAL: BALL, 440C (AMS 5630, AMS 5880, OR AMS 5618) OR PH13-8Mo AMS 5629 H1000 (SEE NOTE 8a).
RACE, AMS 5643 (17-4PH).
LINER, PTFE SHALL BE INCLUDED IN THE LINER.

2. SURFACE TEXTURE: BALL DIA Ra 8 MAX; BALL FACES, BALL BORE AND RACE DIA Ra 32 MAX; ALL OTHER
METALLIC SURFACES Ra 125 MAX. LINER SURFACES ARE EXEMPT FROM SURFACE TEXTURE
MEASUREMENTS.

3. HARDNESS: BALL, 440C Rc 55-62 OR PH13-8Mo Rc 43 MIN; RACE Rc 28 MIN/Rc 37 MAX BEFORE SWAGING.

4. SURFACE FINISH:

RACE: PLATING, WHEN SPECIFIED, SHALL BE ZINC-NICKEL PLATING PER AMS 2417, TYPE 2, OR CADMIUM
PLATING PER AMS-QQ-P-416, TYPE II, CLASS 2, WITH A THICKNESS RANGE OF 0.0003 TO 0.0006
INCHES. PLATE ON THE OUTSIDE DIAMETER SURFACE AND ON THE FLAT BETWEEN THE OUTSIDE
DIAMETER AND THE GROOVE. PLATING RUNOUT MAY OCCUR EITHER IN THE GROOVE OR IN THE
AREA BETWEEN THE GROOVE AND THE BALL.

BALL: PH13-8Mo, PASSIVATE PER AMS-QQ-P-35 OR ASTM A 967; 440C, PASSIVATE PER AMS-QQ-P-35 OR
ASTM A 967, OPTIONAL.

5. NO-LOAD TORQUE: WHEN THE LETTER “K” IS PRESENT IN THE PART NUMBER, LOWER VALUES OF
NO-LOAD TORQUE ARE SPECIFIED PER TABLE 1. IF THE MEASURED TORQUE OF A “K” TYPE BEARING IS
LESS THAN 0.1 INCH-POUND, THE INTERNAL RADIAL PLAY SHALL BE MEASURED AND SHALL NOT EXCEED
THE FOLLOWING:

DASH NO. MAXIMUM RADIAL PLAY MAXIMUM AXIAL PLAY

-3K THRU -12K 0.0007 INCH 0.0021 INCH
-14K THRU -16K 0.0010 INCH 0.0030 INCH

THE INTERNAL AXIAL PLAY SHALL BE MEASURED FOR ALL "K" TYPE BEARINGS.

AS14103

2. BREAK SHARP EDGES AND CORNERS AND REMOVE ALL BURRS AND SLIVERS.

3. THE -3 SIZE BEARING IS EXEMPT FROM THE "RADIAL STATIC LIMIT LOAD" TEST BECAUSE THE LOAD
CAPACITY OF THE BEARING IS PIN CRITICAL.

4. WHEN TESTED TO THE FLUID CONTAMINATION AND SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURE REQUIREMENTS OF THE
PROCUREMENT SPECIFICATION, THE OSCILLATING LOAD SHALL BE DECREASED TO 75% OF THE SPECIFIED
LOAD.

5. WHEN FLUIDS AND ELEVATED TEMPERATURES (ABOVE 200 °F) ARE BOTH PRESENT IN AN APPLICATION,
THEN REDUCTIONS IN OPERATING LOADS OR BEARING LIFE MAY BE REQUIRED.

6. DASH NUMBER DESIGNATES NOMINAL BORE DIA IN SIXTEENTHS OF AN INCH.

7. DIMENSION “øD” TO BE MET AFTER PLATING. DIMENSION "H" TO BE MET BEFORE PLATING WHEN
APPLICABLE.

8. EXAMPLE OF PART NO.

8a. BALL MATERIAL SHALL BE 440C (AMS 5630, AMS 5880, OR AMS 5618) UNLESS "C" CALLOUT IS PRESENT IN
PART NUMBER. "C" INDICATES PH13-8Mo AMS 5629 H1000.

9. IN THE EVENT OF A CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TEXT OF THIS STANDARD AND THE REFERENCES CITED
HEREIN, THE TEXT OF THIS STANDARD SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE.
