Tooling for Crimping 1815 Bearing into a 1.9” Dia. x 16 gauge tube

This tool is designed to push an 1815 bearing into a typical 1.9” diameter x 16 gage tube, crimping the end of the assembly, securely locking the bearing into the tube. 

FEATURES:

·        High quality Tool Steel

·        Nest for roller assembly, to permit HANDS-FREE press closure

·        Attaches to your adapter plate with three 5/16-18 screws on a 2.875” bolt circle, or can be clamped by the flange

·        Will also work with 176 lb GEN II®, and various GENSTAR® bearings by changing the center piloting knock-out sleeve

·        Built by, and in stock at Frantz® Manufacturing Company

Press Requirements:

·        Press must have a method of consistently stopping its stroke to prevent “dog-boning” of the roller ends

·        Must be capable of enough pressure to buckle a 1.9-16ga tube, but have a relief valve to limit that pressure to less

 TUBE HARDNESS: …70 Rb or softer (BHN 125; 10 mm Ball, 3000 kg)

 TUBE CUT-OFF QUALITY:

·        The amount of burr could be a critical factor when using this tool. While some have successfully eliminated a burr removal operation, if the burr is allowed to become too large (small ID), the flange of the bearing may collapse BEFORE the bearing can push through the burr.

·        A Frantz® Manufacturing engineer can evaluate your “worst case” cut-off, and press a bearing into one of your tube samples for your inspection.

·        Does your burr look like this? Give us a call!

This tooling is recommended for use with Frantz® bearings only.
