Bearings


The Drongo

Recommended Posts

I was going to put this in the Engineering section. Then decided against it...for Hubbish reasons. :D

 

I have an* odd size (read: OEM-made-for-you-by-us-so-that-we-can-sell-you-all-the-bits-you-don't-need-when-the-tiny-thing-is-worn-out) bearing. 19 ODx10IDx7mm wide - 63900.

 

*In fact I need 4 number such bearings.

 

I have 2 options:

 

1. Buy the bearings PLUS the Pivot bolts AND upper rocker, from the Agents for about 850zar.

 

2. Replace them with 6800 19x10x5mm with a 2mm spacer pressed into the swingarm seat. This at about 160zar.

 

The 6800 can take a 1720nm static load, and a 840nm dynamic load.

 

SAFE? Anyone else done similar?

 

Yes. You can ask what bikes. But it ain't relevant just yet.

 

Credible replies?

What are the bearings for? If it's frame linkages, don't see why it shouldn't be ok. If it's wheels... don't see why it shouldn't be ok.

 

What sorts of lateral forces are they likely to have to deal with? If not much, no probs? If much, poss probs (but still unlikely?)

Upper linkage to (seatstay) swingarm. It's the lateral forces I am worried about. There is already a 3mm spacer between bolt and bearing on the outer face.

have you tried rush sports and their ENDURO range of bearings ????

 

Cred: 10/10

 

You are the winner chap. :D :thumbup:

 

And as usual 110% service from Rush. :clap:

Seeing as it's a queer size, go along to FAG bearings. They might be able to help you.

 

Credibility: -7.8153/10

 

EDIT - Damn. Too slow.

 

Better be careful there son! Will have to watch your 'back' down there in The Pink Capital. :D

 

Yep. You was slow, and I already phoned the FAG. Therefore: CRED = 3 / 10

 

Just a comparison:

 

Agent: Upper bearings + all the bits I don't need = 580-850zar (??? go fiqure)

Agent: Lower bearings + all the bits I don't need = 487-550zar (??? go fiqure)

 

Rush: Complete set of bearings - what I REALLY need ! - R435.00 (x 2 = FREE SHIPPING)

 

 

+110 for RUSH. :thumbup:

If it's a Deep Groove ball bearing (although I suspect for suspension it will be a cylindrical roller bearing) SKF make the dimension you need:

 

W63800 - 2Z

 

Deep groove ball bearings, single row, stainless steel, shield on both sides

Chap. Zakkery the one. The int. is 63900. Confusion.

 

RUSH Sports - R31.00 normal , R45.00MAX. :thumbup:

 

And all others about R20 cheaper than BMG !
