sin juego

Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / Manufacturer's report
Spanish term or phrase: sin juego
I am currently translating a manufacturer's report on a bearing failure.
I have done my homework and tried to google it and visit all kind of engineering sites regarding the term "sin juego" in the paragraph below.
I would really appreciate your help on this matter.

"La disposición vertical y el tipo de esfuerzos a los que hayan
podido estar sometidos los rodamientos ha provocado que una de las dos hileras se haya
quedado sin juego (pista de rodadura con desconche generalizado). Esta hilera se ha
posicionado axialmente, pero el sobreesfuerzo ha facilitado el contacto metal-metal
entre pista interior y elementos rodantes, lo que ha podido originar una fatiga superficial
y posterior desconche."

Thanks in advance.

agree  Mara Ballarini: I was going to say "with no clearance"
2 mins
  -> Thanks Mara; sorry for the typo! Saludos, eski
disagree  Jennifer Levey: 'no tolerance' is not a valid translation here; tolerance refers to the precision with which a piece is manufactured, not to how much 'juego' it enjoys once in service. // No, not having 'fun' -merely being my usual pedantic self :)
