Wanted for Sentinel S4.

[buggeroff]

I require the rear wheel bearing for my S4 Sentinel . Its a.Hoffmann RLS 23 1/2" F. Anyone know where i might get 1......

Can you give type of bearing (single ball, taper etc.) and all the key dimensions and I will search through my books.

The chances are the Hoffman Bearing Company will have one but it won't be cheap!! I recently a paid them £1450 for a split angular contact bearing, for a sump pump I was rebuilding for a local company. They had one in stock, in its original 1957 packaging.

Cheers Carl.

Have you asked Goolds if they have any Chris? Or if there is an equivalent out there now? Just a thought.

[buggeroff]

Doubt goulds having 1 but will ask Justin. Looks like this has been run dry.

I have had bearings repaired before. Dismantled, raceways reground, and reassembled with oversize balls/rollers. Hoffman did this for me a few years ago on two obsolete deep groove ball bearings.


Cheers Carl.
