Bearings for universal matching are specifically manufactured so that when mounted in random order, but immediately adjacent to each other, a given internal clearance or preload and/or an even load distribution will be obtained without the use of shims or similar devices, refer to the section "Internal clearance and preload". Universally matchable bearings carry a designation suffix to indicate the internal clearance (CA, CB, CC) or preload (GA, GB, GC) of a set of two, prior to mounting.
