This for sintered bearing, assume the ball bearing uses same, although states, "All bearings lubricated for life and normally require no service."
That's true unless the machine sits for 20-30 years unused.
@cwz have you tried rebuilding them? I've had a number of Ampex, Revox, Magnacord and other machines with noisy bearings but I've never had to replace one of them; I simply made sure they were properly lubricated. |
