Basic rating life of the 22312 E

Basic rating life is L10 = (C / P)p million revolutions, where P is the equivalent dynamic load and p = 10/3 (roller bearing). For a 22312 E with C = 325 kN, the table shows what that gives at different load levels. It is the ISO 281 basic life only: it does not include lubrication, contamination, misalignment or reliability modifiers.
