disk axles

luna630 · Oct 7, 2017

I bought a Linebaugh disk with 18 inch scalloped disks. The disks are in good shape. I need to replace the bearings. The disk has round axles 1 1/8 inches. The disks spacers and bearing cups have square holes. Should I use the round axle or try the square axle. I appreciate your advice and help.

The discs that I had all had square holes, and axles. They don't cut so well if they are not being forced to turn by the axle.

IMHO round or square disk shaft has no bearing if disks turn with shaft if shaft nut is torqued tight enough.

I also have a Linebaugh disk, the shaft will be round on the threads end but should be square where the disks and spacers are. I got all my bearings from Agri Supply Company, they were the lowest in price of anywhere I found. Measure the axle width in the square part to see what size bearings you need. I thought I needed 1 1/8 inch but actually it was only a 1 inch shaft. Tractor supply wanted over $30 per bearing, Agri Supply has them for $8.99 each. For that price its always good to order an extra one to have on hand. If you have a 1" shaft and bearings that fit in a flange you'll need bearing number W208PPB6 (Agri Supply number 36404). If its a 1 1/8" shaft you'll need W208PPB5 ( Item #32624). Check out www.agrisupply.com or call 1-800-345-0169. If you need anymore help with this just let me know. I just did bearings in mine back in the summer.
