Click For Summary
Replacing SKF bearings and housings with FAG types is generally possible, as most bearings are standardized and available from multiple manufacturers. Providing specific SKF part numbers can help identify suitable FAG equivalents. Users are encouraged to share details about the type of bearing and housing for more accurate assistance. Overall, cross-referencing part numbers is key to ensuring compatibility. This approach facilitates informed decisions regarding bearing replacements.

It is most probable. Most bearings are standard and can be supplied by several manufacturers.

What type of bearing and housing is it?
If you give us the SKF part numbers, we can probably look up the FAG equivalents.
 

Thread 'Belt C-C distance to Tension'

Hi all, I've looked through design manuals (SDP/SI, Gates, Naismith) and textbooks like Shigley's, but haven't found an equation linking initial belt tension to pulley center-to-center distance for a timing belt. I understand initial tension is typically based on the applied load, but I'm curious: A) Is there a known equation relating tension to C-C distance? B) If not, how might one go about deriving it? Thanks in advance!
