PG CS 550 spool bearings

[Dr. Jekyll - AKA MeL B]

guys if you can provide me the bearing dimensions it will be greatly appreciated. i am thinking i need new bearings because there is a front-back-front play with the spool, especially the right side. i hope it's the bearings though. thanks!

Hi Mel,

I'll pull a reel apart this evening unless someone else responds.

Thanks, Bryan.  I'm in Carmel right now.

Left- 0.125x0.375x0.155 inches

Right - 0.235x0.472x0.156 inches

Note, the right bearing was measured, but I cannot match it up with any bearings I have so I'm not absolutely sure.

It' metric!

The left is 6x12x4 mm

Left  0.125x0.375x0.155 inches   =  3 x 9.5 x 4 mm

Right    0.235x0.472x0.156 inches  = 6 x 12 x 4 mm

One bearing is inch and the other is metric!

[Bryan Young]

That is correct.  The right side bearing is standard and the left is Metric.  To make things clear, the measurements are:

Right Side - 6 x 12 x 4 mm

Left Side - 0.125 X 0.375 X 0.155 inches

Glad to help Mel.
