Hello Reynolds, I appreciate your insightful response. Thank you.

Hi there! According to the SKF general catalog, you can determine the post-installation bearing clearance by making use of the information sheet that comes with the product. It will contain specific details related to the bearing clearance range. However, the main idea here is that C4 represents a radial clearance greater than the normal clearance. So for a 23036CCK C4, you'll have a larger internal clearance than average. Make sure to check the operating conditions/distances to ensure the right bearings are used and the correct clearance is achieved. For precise calculations, it's always a good idea to reach out to SKF technical support.

Sure, I would recommend using the product data table in the SKF general catalog. This table contains information about the bearing's parameters, including its radial internal clearance. For the 23036CCK C4, look for 'C4' in the table. 'C4' represents a grouping of bearings with greater radial internal clearance than 'C3'. You'll generally find that 'C4' clearance characteristics are determined by taking the mean value of the measurement taken during the manufacturing process. Once installed, bearing clearance can be influenced by factors such as fit, temperature, and load, but the SKF catalog provides a solid starting point.

Hey! To determine the post-installation bearing clearance for the 23036CCK C4 bearing using the SKF catalog, you’ll want to start by checking the bearing’s specifications regarding internal clearance and any additional factors such as temperature or operational conditions. Typically, for C4 clearance, you’ll find that it’s designed for applications with higher thermal expansion or misalignment, so you’ll need to ensure that your installation conditions align with this. SKF’s mounting guide might also have helpful insight on checking the clearance after installation, so definitely look there for those practical tips. Good luck!
