The ID was to have a .002" interference fit..and I accomplished this
with no issues. I machined the OD to be .003 larger than the ID of the
bearing race....and once the bearing race was tapped a couple times..the
damned thing slid on with a tad bit more than hand pressure. Easy with a
small block of wood.


Are you measuring your shaft while hot after machining?

Nope. I waited while running coolant over the part. Maybe I didnt wait
long enough..but they were handleable.

How are you measuring your bearing bore?


Starrett telescoping gage set with a NSK mic, using a total of 10
measurements.
