K Factor in Design of Rolling Contact Bearing Formulas

K Factor is the constant that depends upon the radii of curvature at the point of contact and on the moduli of elasticity of materials. And is denoted by k. K Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of K Factor is always positive.

FAQ

What is the K Factor?

K Factor is the constant that depends upon the radii of curvature at the point of contact and on the moduli of elasticity of materials. K Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of K Factor is always positive.

Can the K Factor be negative?

No, the K Factor, measured in Stress cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure K Factor?

K Factor is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Stress. Pascal[N/mm²], Newton per Square Meter[N/mm²], Kilonewton per Square Meter[N/mm²] are the few other units in which K Factor can be measured.
