what size to bore for press fit bearings

As described in Department 9-3, the characteristics / magnitude of the bearing load, temperature, mounting / dismounting methods and other conditions must be considered to choose proper fits.
Past experience is also valuable.
Tabular array 9-3 shows standard fits for the metric series bearings; Tables 9-iv to nine-eight tabulate the most typical and recommended fits for dissimilar bearings types.

2) IT 5 and It 7 mean that shaft roundness tolerance, cylindricity tolerance, and other errors in terms of shape should be within the tolerance range of IT v and Information technology 7, respectively. For numerical values for standard tolerance grades Information technology v and It vii, refer to supplementary table at cease of this catalog.
