Nylon bearings offer excellent load bearing capacity, corrosion resistance, and are lightweight compared to steel. Proper bearing design requires considering the operating environment including temperature and moisture, as well as calculating the necessary press fit, running clearance by accounting for shaft allowance, temperature and moisture factors, and ensuring the bearing size can withstand the load and surface speed. Questions about the bearing design process are welcome.

A bearing is a machine element which support another moving machine element (known as journal). It permits a relative motion between the contact surfaces of the members, while carrying the load.
This project aim is to produce electricity using the concept of rotating wind turbine. Wind caused by moving train is used to generate electricity. The idea is to design wind turbine that can be installed between the slippers on the track. As a train passes by, wind pressure drives the turbine to generate the electricity, this device could be placed along railway line and make good use of waste resources. An electrical power generation system comprises of variable capacitors and power sources. Power sources is used in the form of generator to prime variable capacitor that effectively multiplies the priming energy of power source by extracting energy from passing vehicle
Disc Springs are conically-shaped, washer-type components designed to be axially loaded. What makes Disc Springs unique is that based on the standardized calculations of DIN EN 16984 (formerly DIN 2092), the deflection for a given load is predictable and the minimum life cycle can be determined. Disc Springs, which are superior to belleville washers, can be statically loaded either continuously or intermittently, or dynamically subjected to continuous load cycling. They can be used singly or in multiples stacked parallel, in series or in a combination thereof.

5. Press FitPress Fit
Bearing should be slightly larger than housing diameter
Rule of thumb, multiply 0.005 to √Housing Diameter. The bearing
should be larger by this amount.
Example; for a 4 inch housing, the press fit is 0.005 x √4 = 0.010.
The bearing diameter should be machined to 4.010 inches

6. Running ClearanceRunning Clearance
There are four components that
make up running clearance
Shaft Allowance
Operating Temperature
Moisture factor
Press Fit
Note: The single most common reason
for nylon bearing failure is inadequate
running clearance.
7. Shaft Allowance
Per chart below:
Shaft Size (Ds) 3/4 1 1 1/4 1 1/2 1 3/4 2 2 1/4 2 1/2 2 3/4 3
Shaft Allowance 0.004 0.005 0.006 0.007 0.008 0.009 0.01 0.011 0.012 0.013
Note: For shafts larger than 3”, add 0.002” per inch to 0.013”. For
example, a 5” diameter shaft would need 0.017” shaft allowance.
8. Operating Temperature
Additional running clearance will be required to account for the ambient
temperature.
This additional clearance depends on the nominal wall thickness of the
bearing as well as the temperature.
Ambient temperature (in °F) Wall Thickness Factor (T)
70° 0.013
100° 0.016
150° 0.019
200° 0.022
250° 0.025
300° 0.029
To calculate the additional running clearance, reference the ambient temperature
and multiply the wall thickness factor to the nominal wall thickness of the bearing.
For example: A 2-1/4” dia housing with 1-1/2” shaft at 250°F would need an
additional 0.009” running clearance (0.375” wall * 0.025).
9. Moisture Factor
For submerged applications, machine bushing to within 0.1” of
finished size and soak in water for 5 days. Then, machine to size.
Otherwise, use the charge below:
Wall Thickness Additional Running Clearance
3/16” 0.018”
¼” 0.022”
5/16” 0.025”
3/8” 0.027”
½” 0.030”
5/8” 0.032”
¾” 0.033”
1” or larger 0.034”
10. Adjusted Bearing Size
Bearing OD = Housing ID + Press Fit
Example: 2.5” Housing requires a press fit of 0.008 (.005 x √2.5).
Bearing OD then is 2.508”
Bearing ID = Shaft OD + Shaft Allowance + temperature factor + moisture
factor + Press fit
Example: 1.25” shaft operating at 200°F in a 2.5” housing (not
submerged). Bearing ID = 1.25” + 0.006 + 0.014 + 0 + 0.008. The
Bearing ID is 1.278”
Tolerances
For bearings smaller than 5” OD, the OD tolerance should be +/-0.004
provided that it does not eliminate the press fit. The tolerance on the ID
should be +0.005, -0.
11. Load Bearing Calculation of aLoad Bearing Calculation of a
BushingBushing
For bushing or bearing applications, use a compressive strength of 3,500 psi.
The Load Bearing capability of the bushing is the contact area multiplied by 3,500 psi
The contact area is Inner Diameter multiplied by the Length.
Example; an ID of 1.5” and a length of 4”.
Contact area is 1.5” x 4” = 6 square inches
In our example 6 square inches x 3,500 psi = 21,000 lbs.

12. Pressure Velocity (PV) Calculation
PV is the pressure on the nylon
part multiplied by the surface
speed.
Common units for PV is psi-
fpm.
Typically Known information:
Load
Shaft or part speed in rpm
Shaft diameter
Contact length
Example:
Bearing – 3” long on a 2” dia
shaft carrying a 3,000 lb load
and rotating at 55 rpm.
Pressure: load ÷ contact area
3,000 lbs ÷ 3” (long) x 2” (shaft dia) = 500
psi
Surface Speed (in fpm)
2” dia shaft @ 55 rpm
2” x π x 55 rpm = 345.4 in. per minute.
345.4 ÷ 12 (in/ft) = 28.78 fpm
PV is 500 psi x 28.78 fpm
or 14,390 psi-fpm
13. Limiting PV Values
MD Nylon is 3,000 psi·fpm
Oil Filled and MD-Oil Filled is 5,500 psi·fpm
Nylatech SL is 15,000 psi·fpm
Nylatech PVM is 16,000 psi·fpm
