Labrynth seal clearances depend up the diameter of the rotating shaft, bearing clearance & temperature of the lubricating medium. As ageneral thumb rule the clearance must be 0.03 mm per 1" dia of shaft.

What is the maximum possible clearance between shaft with radial O ring and cylinder to hold 5 bar hydrostatic pressure?

It depends on the diameters of the shaft and the O-ring. Whether or not it rotates, or slides, how many O-rings or seals are on the shaft, and the thickness of the cylinder head. Consult the manufacturer of the cylinder for the proper clearances required.


Can you increase the shaft diameter on a Briggs and Stratton horizontal shaft?

I am afraid not Depending on the size of the shaft on the thing you are putting on it is possible to get a bushing made to increase the size of the shaft. Go to your local machine shop and ask if they can make one.)


What is the shear strength of a 1 inch diameter steel shaft?

44,000 psi Steel has a shear strength (in single shear) of 44,000 psi; in double shear of 88,000 psi. The area in shear is the diameter of the shaft times the length of the shaft under stress. If it passes through two 1/4" plates with forces acting in opposite directions the shaft will fail with the application of 22,000 pounds of force. If it passes through three sheets of 1/4" plate (with the force on the center plate opposite the other two) the plate will fail with the application of 23,750 pounds of force (compression {crush} failure).

Difference between interference fit and clearance fit?

When assembling two parts, if the shaft is larger then the hole, you then get an interference because the shaft won't fit. A clearance fit is an assembly where a part enters a matching hole with a slightly larger diameter for easy joining or easy removal.


What is the clearance fit?

A clearance fit is an a assembly where there is a space between the two parts. The shaft is always smaller than the part it fits into.
