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.
 
My idea is that I want to use immerse Whitetail Antlers in a fishtank to measure their volumetric displacement (the Boone and Crockett system is the current record measurement standard to place in a juxtaposition with) I would use some sight glass plumbed into the side of the tank to get the change in height so that I can multiply by the tank cross-section. Simple Idea. But... Is there a simple mechanical way to amplify the height in the sight glass to increase measurement precision...
