Aberdeen MS | Only for trying to remember which way to start tapping to take it off.
The eccentric on the bearing inner race isn't threaded like bolt or pipe. The lock collar set screwed tight to the shaft with go to the other extreme of the eccentric and be tight. As long as the collar stays tight on the shaft, it makes no nadda.
Around here, when the set gets to the point of replacing it's the gas ax anyway. But there are times when the two do seperate and you just have to then deal with the bearing itself.
Now my dad would scream bloody murder about using a new lock collar, one would "save" that in the event the old one you put on with the new bearing failed, that way you have a spare.
The old ones do make a nice spacer in some instances tho. | |
