Kity 613 bandsaw support bearing

[Steve Trauthwein]

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone knew where I can get a blade support bearing for a Kity 613? Wouldn't mind a redo on the system if something is available.

Regards, Steve

I'm assuming you're talking about guide bearings. What is on it now? If they're roller bearings, they are almost certainly a common size. Take one off and read the numbers off the shield (if it's not totally trashed). Most likely it's a 6xxx series bearing. If the shield is trashed both sides, you can take the bearing to your local electric motor shop or measure the ID and OD (almost always millimeters) and order them from a bearing supplier such as www.accuratebearing.com.
