Hello,

I guess this is small turbine, if the rotor shaft has ~ 2' of diameter. I found on SKF site such recommendation: bearing hole 49.985 - 50.00 and for shaft (k6) 50.002 -50.015 and we have min. interference= 0.002 and max interference= 0.03. But if take n5 for shaft (50.02 - 50.033) we'll have min. interference = 0.02 and max = 0.048. I feel that this is the best one. I do not have any if about work conditions, so I am not sure. Do not you have any data how it looked like before shaft build up activity?

P.S. All dimensions are in millimeters.
