Step1 : Identify the shape of the outer race and measure the dimensions of ①.

Step 2 : Check the kind of inner race and measure the dimensions of ②.

The dimensions of ② can be calculated approximately by the “inner race width – outer race width” shown in the following figure.

Using a caliper or ruler, measure the two areas shown in the figure and calculate.
In the case of the following figure, the inner race width is 8.87mm and the outer race width is 6.84mm.
Since “8.87mm – 6.84mm = 2.03mm,” we can estimate that ② is 2mm.

You can identify the product by applying the shapes and dimensions you checked in step 1 and 2.
