Looking through various EN and ISO standards has not helped. If the shaft or hub is blued and fitted together [rotated] a percentage area of the other component is marked.
I am looking for guidance on what would be an acceptable marked area? Some publications for machine tool spindles state 80%! Is there any basis for this or other values?
The actual taper is for a replacement hub with a 1/10 taper at 190 dia, at the small end, x 280 long and is used to support and fix a "disk" of 4000 kg.
