| |Hi there,
| |
| |I am looking to buy the following from the usa
| |
| |http://www.azusaeng.com/wheels/whls8a.html
| |
| |The problem i have however is with bearing sizes. The O/D of the
| |bearings required for this wheel are 1+3/8 of an inch, which is 34.925
| |mm. I can source bearings in this country with an I/D of 17mm, which is
| |required for my application, however, the OD of the UK bearing is 35mm.
| |
| |
| |The question is, will a 35mm bearing fit in the hub that is built to
| |accept 34.925mm bearings? Will it just be a bit of a squeeze to get the
| |bearing in? Will there be any problem with the bearing if it is
| |slightly compressed?
|
| Your local bearing shop can get whatever you want, metric or imperial.

http://www.qbcbearings.com/B610/PDF/B610T001.pdf will probably tell you.

IIRC .075 mm or 3 thou is a very heavy drive fit. Google for "drive fit"
"push fit", We used to have tables of such things, but I can not find them
on Google.
