  6. Calculate the thrust washer thickness "t" using the following calculation.

    t = X - W + (0.15 - 0.25 mm (0.006 - 0.010 in))

  7. Select the washer with the nearest value in the following table.

    Preload (standard protrusion) of the taper roller bearing: 

    0.15 - 0.25 mm (0.006 - 0.010 in) 

    NOTE: Be sure that the preload is always within the standard.
