Life Calculator
Sizes
All numeric input fields allow you to enter a value with an accuracy of up to 1 micrometer ("micron" or 1 thousandth of a millimeter).
All fields in this section are the basis for subsequent calculations and must be filled in.

How the sliding bearing life calculator works
The calculator is divided into three consecutive steps:
- Selecting the type of sliding bearing
- Entering the dimensional characteristics
- Determining the operational characteristics
After selecting the type of bearing, you will be prompted to enter the dimensions. Depending on the type of bearing, these are the following fields:
- Width
- Inner diameter
- Flange diameter (for flanged bearings)
- Outer diameter (for washer bearings)
All fields in this section are mandatory and further calculation is impossible without them.
After entering the dimensions, click on the link to go to the next section Operational Conditions.
All fields in this section are already filled in with default values, which you can change according to your operational characteristics. Already at this stage, at the bottom of the calculator, the service life of the sliding bearing is calculated. By changing the operating parameters, you can observe the change in the calculated service life.
