The grease quantity of “xxTAC20(29)X(D)” should be same as the double row cylindrical roller bearing’s, which is assembled with this bearing together.
Use the grease listed on Page 173, and multiply 0.93 (density) to the quantity above, for the weight of the grease.
For the recomended grease quantity for angular contact thrust ball bearing for ball screw support, please refer to Page 110-113.
