Title: Broken bearing
Post by: Ricky Lim on July 15, 2015, 05:15:39 PM
Hi all
Pull apart my saltiga power knob and found one of the bearing is broken. The outside part of the bearing is still stuck inside. What's the best way to get it out?

Regard
Ricky

 Lots of lube and a drill bit big enough to grab the bearing shell but small enough to not tough the knob sides, the idea being that the drill bit grabs the bearing race and spins to break the corrosion holding it in the handle knob. Take care and time to get it right. Good luck.
