AI Thread 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.

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
