Author Topic: PACAMOR bearings ? Raymond Watson Film Handler Posts: 26 From: Waldron, Arkansas Registered: Feb 2006 posted 02-25-2006 10:47 AM                     Does anyone have a good source for film roller bearings? Most of what I need is the PACAMOR 7R4 or the NHBB R4 precision bearings.(same bearing)I have several that are sticking. I just want my rollers to be as free as possible before I start running my equipment hard.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-25-2006 10:21 PM                     Any bearing house should have R4 bearings. Getting special ones - if they are special - is always harder. Plastic ones are pretty easy to find, bearings with fewer bigger balls or more smaller balls than "standard" are harder to source but a good bearing rep can get you what you need. Most roller bearings I look at are either plastic no lube required or have 5 or 7 large balls instead of 11 or so small ones and look to have quite large clearances for easy rotation with little or no lube.  |  IP: Logged Raymond Watson Film Handler Posts: 26 From: Waldron, Arkansas Registered: Feb 2006 posted 02-28-2006 07:46 PM                     thanks Dave  |  IP: Logged
