Preparation and Tolerance of Housing Bore

In order to achieve the proper press-fit, the tolerance of the housing must be observed.

Machine tolerances are ISO standard H8

The housing bore should have a good surface finish of at least 16 μm

To facilitate seal installation, the entrance to the bore should have a 5-10 degree chamfer, 1.0-1.5 mm deep.
