Looking for a thrust bearing that goes on the bottom of the quill in a Delta-Rockwell, Model 11-200 drill press.
This drill press is only a few years younger than I am. I was six-years-old when my father bought it new.
Original part # 920-40-020-5330
Dimensions:
ID - .628" - approximately (slip fit on .625 shaft.
OD - 1.125" (Slips into bore - not pressed in.....popped unbroken race out w/screwdriver)
Thickness - approximately .345" (YOU try and measure while holding broken race pieces and balls together in one hand!)
OEM part no longer available. Checked on OWWM.com and acetoolrepair.com.
Has anybody had any success using a three-piece thrust bearing setup with a roller bearing and cage (OEM was a ball bearing), with two hardened thrust washers designed to work with the roller?
I see TC 1018 bearing and cage, to be coupled with two TWA-1018 washers in my MSC catalog.
Total thickness comes out a little shy of OEM (.142"), but there is room for fudging.
I could also order extra washers and shim it pretty close.
Ideas?
