Abstract
The stern tube bearing is installed to the stern tube and stern boss casting by using the method of the force pressured fitting. The adequate value of the interference between the stern tube bearing and casting should be considered owing to the slip. In this study, to review and compare the fitting force and the contact pressure, the theory of thick walled cylinder is considered to clarify the formula which received from the maker. Also the fitting force and contact pressure are calculated by using the standard value of interference, Young`s modulus, Poisson`s ratio and friction coefficient.
