Thrust Journal/Thrust Surface Width Regrinding
Thrust journals can be reground in the same increments and using the same specifications as all other main
journals. The main journal radius may be reground using either the preferred or the optional procedure providing the
thrust surface width is not being reground. Then the preferred procedure must be used. When the thrust surface
width requires regrinding, the main Journal must be reground to the same undersize dimension.

The thrust surface (C) is to be ground on center within 0.10mm

mains within .0015mm [.00006 inch] per radial Inch on the
thrust area. The surface finish requirement.is .04 micrometer
[16 microinch].
