[balibalistic]

Hey guy's, would anyone know where we can get replacement bearings for our 4x6 bandsaws? you know, the blade guide bearings?? one of mine seized up on me.

Mine uses
6200-ZZ
BORE 10MM, OD 30MM, WIDTH 9MM

The size is listed right on the side of the bearing

They may try to sell you RS rather than ZZ, but I think steel seals are better than rubber ones for this.

You should be able to get them locally, or you can get them online but shipping will be more than the bearing.
$ 2 or $ 3 each I would guess.

There are generally 3 grades, Chinese, Japanese, USA
The cheapest Chinese ones are usually ok for easy to change locations like this.

If you cant score them locally (Best option) I get all my bearings from VXB bearings online.

I've come across them in searches quite a bit, how are they?

I really like VXB bearings, You can order right on the internet. I have probably used them about 6-8 times in the last year. And I always get what I need with no hassle and pretty reasonably priced IMO.
