speed basis
also called basis of the speed figure · which speed
WHICH OF THE TWO PUBLISHED SPEEDS A `speed_rating` FIGURE IS - the thermal reference speed of ISO 15312 or the mechanical limiting speed. A qualifier, not a flat property beside its host, for the b153 `filtration_rating`/`filtration_efficiency` reason: a bearing publishes both figures and a loose basis token could not say which number it belonged to. Concern measurement.
