Description: * That's $5.50 PER BEARING, shipped FREE! (U.S. shipping), excluding tax. OEM spec Replacement 3-Bearing Kit for Rainbow® Rexair D4C D4C-SE, R1981 R5238 Condition is New. Free Shipping. Limited Quantities Available. * Identical spec or higher spec replacements for hard-to-find Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) bearings for RexAir Rainbow® located in armature bridge, upper and lower motor housings of motor base * A Rainbow® Cleaning System is arguably considered the most reliable, and lasts such a long time because of its brilliant design, and manufacture to specifications. If you are going to rebuild/refurbish the motor, why compromise by installing different or lower spec components? * A 3-Bearing kit includes: Qty (2) x P/N R1981 OEM identical spec or higher spec replacement with metal shield on one side and rubber seal on the other (see note below) - OEM bearings satisfy/comply with the required specified internal clearance for the design application, e.g., cold start to hot operating temperatures; non-compliant bearings will fail prematurely - It is never advisable to replace a bearing with one having a lower initial clearance - OEM bearings satisfy/comply with the required debris protection of the ball bearing/race application, e.g., metal shield Qty (1) x P/N R5238 identical spec or higher spec replacement with rubber seals (see note below) - R5238 is the same as R1981 but with rubber seals on both sides - R1981 can be substituted for R5238, but not vice versa (refer to above-mentioned required shielding)... the kit may contain all R1981-spec metal shielded bearings for the same price * One (1) x R1981 installs in bearing bridge on top of armature; metal shield towards carbon brush * One (1) x R1981 installs in the upper housing of the motor base assembly; metal shield towards carbon brush * One (1) x R5238 or R1981 installs in the lower housing of the motor base assembly * Note: The kit may contain all R1981-spec metal shielded bearings at no extra cost * Note: OEM identical performance-spec or replacement bearings may have metal shields on both sides * Free Shipping!!! (via USPS First Class Package) *Returns : 30 day, Buyer pays for return shipping. Initial shipping cost will be deducted from refund : The item may be returned within 30 days for a refund less 20% restocking fee. Returned merchandise must be in the same new condition with the bearings still in the vacuum packaging. Used/opened items CANNOT be used to restock and will not be accepted for return. *Responses to Questions: : When installing the new bearings, do yourself a favor and apply a very small amount of anti-seize compound on the bearing shaft. Nearly all rusted-on-shaft bearings we have come across occur with the lower housing bearing. Avoid using grease because it will, simply, attract dust and cause other issues. The anti-seize makes removal of the bearings easier, thus, avoiding damage to the armature. If you have to tap on the ends of the shaft, use a brass hammer or steel hammer-wood block set up... the shaft ends get deformed easily. : We were careful in specifying it was an "OEM replacement" and not "OEM" per the definition: "An OEM refers to something made specifically for the original product, while the aftermarket refers to equipment made by another company that a consumer may use as a replacement." : We researched and tested the metal shielded bearings in the lower housing of several D4C/SE units and found no water infiltration: The lower housing bearing is exposed to moisture that is not under pressure, i.e., incidental. The metal shields, apparently, last longer and, hence, seal better than the rubber shields due in part to less friction between the shield and bearing race.
