11、ing liner designed to withstand (under load) slight swiveling and slow rotations only. It is applicable whenever referenced. These bearings are for actuator applications and for use in the temperature range - 55 “C to 163 OC. The liner may be of a fabric or composite material bonded to the inside di

12、ameter of the outer ring or in a composite material moulded into a pre-formed cavity between the inner and outer rings. The duty cycle (annex E, normative) has been established on the basis of a civil aircraft aileron surface application. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by

19、ded on the spherical surface of the outer ring. The width of the inner ring is greater than the width of the outer ring, so that a tilting movement is possible in addition to the rotational movement. The outer ring has no assembly slot. This outer ring has grooves for mechanical swaging. 1) Publishe
