Bearing ID and Supply.

Does anybody know where I can obtain this bearing? It’s an SKF pressed steel flange type, 4 bolt, shaft diameter 45 mm, outer diameter of race 85 mm, hole centres 120mm across the diameter, overall flange outer diameter 150 mm. It’s on a straw chopper on a JD combine. Main Dealer can’t identify it. No marks on the bearing.
You think it’s a straight forward job but never is.

It's an SB 209

Thanks. Doesn't have a locking collar but I think it would do the job.

You can get one with a locking collar

Looks promising.

Well piecing all that together I think the best equivalent is an RHP SLFE45DEC.
Thanks for getting me there.

I found that some JD bearings are unavailable elsewhere other than a dealer. Sometimes though it is just a matter of getting a slightly different width.

Bearing boys now in Norfolk are very good and next day delivery too.

It shows a 4 bolt flange on the quality bearings online website. I think some suppliers show a 3 bolt flange photo for all their pressed steel flange units, which isn't very helpful.
So I ordered 2 off SLFE45EC.
SLFE45DEC would have had an inner race that extended in towards the middle of the shaft.
EC indicates eccentric locking collar.
Every day is an education for me. Just hope they fit and arrive before it dries up again for the spring barley.
The rotor was vibrating a fair bit. Sharpening the blades as well and weighing them and trying to balance it up best I can.
Might even run to a new set.
Thanks all for help getting there.

The seal type can matter on high speed bearings. Some I’ve used to replace belt tensioner weren’t lasting long then I found out the seals were not intended to run super fast.

It crossed my mind that this is quite a high speed application but i think they are within spec.
Always some risk when using non genuine parts.
