reconditioning

American Reconditioning Program

The existing material value in a worn or lightly damaged bearing can be salvaged by a comprehensive RECONDITIONING process. Cost savings of 20 to 70 percent of a replacement bearing are typically provided.

The first step in this process is a thorough CLEANING and INSPECTION to determine its condition.

Raceways are POLISHED or RE-GROUND as required, new components such as rollers MANUFACTURED, and cage pockets enlarged

Specifically, all worn or damaged surfaces have been REGROUND or REPLACED and the bearing completely RESTORED.

Final INSPECTION completes the process as all components are 100% inspected to ensure every reconditioned bearing meets our highest QUALITY standards to give the user many more hours of service life.

A WARRANTY is provided on all our reconditioned bearings regardless of the original manufacturer.

Bearing Types Include:

Radial & Thrust
Cylindrical Roller
Tapered Roller
Spherical Roller
Ball & Angular Contact
