We need a new rear bearing for the chump car.
I noticed FAG are 38 and SWF are 82 from the bird board. Is the SWF better quality? Will the concours judges ding us? :-) John |

FAG (Fat American Guy)= 38 - cheaper, but I don't swing that way.
SKF (Southern Kinky Female) = 82 - a little more of everything ! I have used both. They are equal in wear. However you must look at the material specifications to really know. Check Ball bearing material and process. Check Race material and process. ~ http://www.fag-skf-nsk.com/en/channel/fag-...ements-569.html This site has the normal mumbo-jumbo, but take notice of the ethic of design by failure mode determining material & processes. |
