c =numeral on gear case 45.52)
d =numeral (usually a decimal number) on
outside of ring gear bearing housing and
added to 3.
e =numeral (usually a decimal number) on
inside of ring gear either added to or
subtracted from 35.40.
f bearing thickness (consideredconstant).
Bearing Thickness "f" = 13.00 mm
Example:
1) If gear case is marked "45.52" . . . "c" is
45.52.
If ring gear bearing housing is marked
"35" . . . "d" is 0.35 + 3 = 3.35.
3 ) I f ring gear is marked . . . is
35.40 + 0.01 = 35.41.
4)"f" is 13.00.
45.52 + 3.35 - (35.41 + 13.00)
48.87 - (48.41)
= 0.46
shim thickness is 0.46 mm.
Shim sizes are supplied in following thickness:
Thickness (mm)
0.25 0.30 0.35
0.40 0.45 0.50
Because shims can only be selected in 0.05
mm increments, round off hundredths
digit and select appropriate
