Kaydon part number codes
Reali-Slim® open & sealed bearings
Endurakote®-plated bearings
Reali-Slim® stainless steel bearings
Kaydon Reali-Slim® open bearings and sealed bearings, stainless steel bearings, and Endurakote® bearings are marked for complete identification with an (8) or (9) digit part number. Positions 1–8 identify materials, size, type, and precision. Position 9 (optional) identifies non-standard internal fit. |
