Thank you Mr. Pete! I have an old (NOT OBSOLETE!) 1969 Quincy compressor (per serial #) and I am sure the motor bearings have never been replaced. I can tell, it makes an awful squeaking when first starting up. I was dreading taking it to the local Las Vegas, Electric motor repair shop because as a 45 yo person I don't think people spend the true quality of time and do a good job. That's why I find my self, watching you, the Canadian AvE, The old Tony dude, the Spring that Clicks, and many more, including some from your meet and greet. Point is, I thank you for what you are doing your Tubal experience is very morally and mechanically valued, and I always look forward to more. And now on to that bearing motor job... time to plug in the Rigid that moves across the floor on its own! If I had 2 Rigids I could race them!

Reminds me of my work in D.C. (Capital Hill) replacing seals and bearings on condensation and circulation pumps. We used to use our stove ovens and even electric bearing heaters to expand them in the installation process. Sometimes the bearings would overheat and leak all the grease out , requiring them to be thrown away. The younger mechanics had to be taught this process by us seasoned “old fellows.” The seals were made of ceramic, requiring to be install gently and in a immaculate condition or they would leak. I’m retired 3 years now but you’re bringing back some old memories. Thanks mr. Pete Oh, I almost forgot- The young bucks would always to forget to mark the housing and struggled putting the motors and pumps back together, then cry for help! Lol

That was a great service on the Gould Century motor! I also was surprised when finding that this style motor has one sleeve bearing and one ball bearing. They are good motors, though. Many were used on air compressors. The rotor is made by placing the iron laminations into a die casting machine, and then injecting the aluminum into it so that it fills the voids and creates the rotor bars. In the Gould Century motor, they cast the rotor fan as one piece with the rotor bars. It does look different like that, and it helps provide flywheel mass for reciprocating air compressor applications!

I once found an odd sleeve bearing similar to what you found on your motor on a smaller air exchanger motor that needed replacing. I could not find any way to fix it other than to change the entire motor at a crazy price. So I ended up removing the material holding the bearing and casting a new seat for a similar size ball bearing using liquid weld. Similar to jb weld. It was a bit of an experiment at the time but it's still turning today many years later and now the bearings can easily be replaced. Thanks again for your great videos.

Thanks for the video. I am trying to get a 1 HP electric motor back working for an old Craftsman 113 table saw. When powered the motor would hum then trip the breaker. I took it apart, cleaned it up, put it back together and got it to spinning. 14 amp motor on a 15 am circuit was still tripping the circuit. I plugged it into a 20 amp circuit and it ran for about 30 seconds before blowing the capacitor (pop, smoke, electrolytic fluid leaked out). I took it back apart to check the bearings. One bearing has me puzzled. I think it may be a sleeve bearing, but it appears to have some type of fibrous wafer inside that I am guessing is supposed to absorb the oil (from the oiling ports) and then keep the spinning shaft oiled. On the inside surface of the bearing which has ID of about 5/8", there is a gap in the inner surface (1/4" - 5/16") where that fibrous washer/ring is exposed. Is that normal? What type of bearing is that? I have ordered another capacitor, but don't want to install it just to destroy it also if there is some other issue that caused the first capacitor to fail.

The mixed bearing thing is a design specification, motors can have a variety of bearing configurations just like the seals you mentioned as to what the designers intended the end use of the motor to originally be. Back in our days it was standard practice that if a ball baring was not absolutely necessary for longevity, save expense and use a plain bushing, if you remember ball bearings weren't as cheap then as now. That motor you replaced the bearings on was specifically design for "belt service" most likely to power a belt driven air compressor (because of the huge fan on one end)where it would see a high lateral loads on one end. Matter-of-fact, back in our days Century built damn good motors although not the very top of the line like Lincoln Electric, or Reliance Electric (just my opinion.) Yes, Lincoln they did build more that just welders, On AC induction motors the rotation mass is call a rotor, on DC motors it is called a armature (a rotating switch.) For once I've got to send some information your way. Thanks for all your great videos!

at 3:00 in this is a potential trouble spot for this motor design, on the double ball bearing version the bearing will damage the switch and you have to first take the rear bearing housing off to maneuver the switch around the bearing. usually this bends the switch which causes the arms to hang too low, so it wont start when re-assembled, or it makes noise.

Glad I measured the bearings and shaft before ordering!! Until then I didn't know the 6202 came in anything but 15mm bore. I first thought they may be 5/8" bore but that would have given a 0.005" press fit. The 16mm gives a 0.001" press fit. Always measure the bearing race! (I ordered both, to be safe)

pump motors generally have a fan shield like that to toss any water that might come in outwards. Did you measure the shaft? I only ask cause I have a set of 6202 bearings on my desk. Both are marked just 6202 nothing else but one is 15mm the other is 1/2 inch inside diameter. Ive seen that a number of times even when shopping for bearings. I'm probably the only one that comes with her own caliper just to check inside diameter of bearings before i buy them. Side note. Just checked i have 6203's as well. these are what I call used non crit bearings. Ie I replaced them on a motor but they were not bad. For slow speed applications these would be just fine. Ie a roller assembly for either woodworking or steel. And they are both 5/8 not 17mm. uhm not to be picky but are you sure that is not a 3/4 hp motor? 1hp + usually have a 3/4 shaft. which would be a 6204 bearing oh well just my two cents worth (nickles if you prefer)

When the labeling dept gets lazy.. like what other bearings would be in a motor.. never seen a roller bearing motor and an oil light bearing is considered a bushing.. funny though...

Where can I find bearings for a 7.5hp 3 phase 143t Ingersoll rand motor
@mrpete222 Жыл бұрын
Probably at any major, bearing house or industrial supplier. There is such as motion industries.

Hello, I finally took the plunge and disassembled a Doerr LR22132 1.5HP. Got it apart. The beatings are 5/8” sealed labeled 230. If they are sealed, do they need to be replaced? I also need to change direction and volt from 220 to 110. Any ideas? I looked it up, found the reference,but can’t find the numbers for the internal terminals. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Sealed bearings can wear out just like any other bearing Does the motor nameplate say that it is dual voltage?
@fredsanford61436 ай бұрын
The motor is from a 1970’s sears compressor. It gives wiring diagrams for both voltages. The terminals have no markings I can see. @@mrpete222
