General 90125-57 Thrust Bearing Replacement Set (2pc) - 14" Bandsaw

These high-quality replacement bearings are double-sealed with rubber O-rings to keep out sawdust and contaminants. They are factory lubricated with high-temperature grease and if their faces get scored, you can reverse them for extended life. This set fits General 14", Delta 14" and Jet 14" bandsaws with standard factory blade guides and many clones.  It includes top and bottom bearings and installation instructions. 

A bandsaw's thrust bearings are often the weakest link in the blade guide system. Even if you've smoothed the blade's back and rounded its corners, the pressure put on the thrust bearings in the process of cutting thick wood can wear out OEM bearings (a tempting place to save manufacturing costs) lickety-split. If your saw's thrust bearings are sloppy, frozen, scored, or feel gritty when you spin them, then they're overdue for replacement.
