reeflo baldor motor repair

Good idea on the tap. Do you happen to know the specs of the threading on the drive shaft?

No I'm sorry I don't.

Might be worth a quick email to them to see if they might have the info.

Bearing and seal ordered from the links you posted. Thanks again!

Changing the bearings went smooth. I did have problems removing the cooling fan and damaged it. Do you know where I can get a replacement for this bald or motor?

how did you remove the front bearing ? Seems like the outer case of the bearing is welded into the front metal piece

 

[hollback]

There was a retaining ring / lock ring holding the bearing into the front plate.

I was able to bend it back into place and then epoxy it back together. Good so far!

This is a good thread. It's now been two years and I am wondering how the OP's bearings have held up.

I am thinking of buying some as I am not happy with the bearings that I used on my backup pump.
I got them off Amazon and I think they are just not up to the job.

Does anyone know what is the best set of bearings you could by in the 6200zc3 series for the Reeflo Dart? I would pay good money for top of the line bearings that might last more than three years and are super quiet
