Just call factory it is still going strong,it's simple disk named after town.Fairly good sized operation used to drop off steel in there once a week coming off the east coast. They can tell just where to go they may still have parts somewhere.

Call Agri - Supply to get a catalog, 1-800-345-0169. They have some cast iron bearing spools and caps listed. Whether or not they"ll fit your disk, I don"t know. Good luck.

BTW, Neighbor"s Kewanee disk is red with yellow wheels, but his Kewanee packer-harrow is green with yellow wheels.

I know only one thing they did not use wood in the bearings i have. they had big long grease zerks coming off the top. they split with the axle, made of cast iron. it uses a spacer that has raised rings on it (probly to hold tension from movering back and forth) this raised ring pacer is the same lenght as the other spacers on the disk. I do not see them in the shoup catalog but am going to look online. anyone know what i'm talking about???

My 2 old IHC discs (no lift wheels) has those, I knew what you were talking about from the beginning - but alas, I'm no help, don't know where to find such things....

They will run another 20 years if you grease them every 15-20 acres - liberally. That's how it's done around here.

i think they would last about another 20 years, but i have a couple front gang bearing where the first little edge is broke off. 2 of the 9 total bearing. one is a wear hole starting and can probly be welded shut. but my father said he would pay to have new ones so thats why i'm looking. i guess two bad bearings isn't thats bad just pump more grease to them. and by the way the disk i have is a wheel disk and the wheels have roller type bearings and seals. go figure they must have thought like me, this type of bearing is stronger than the roller type and runs in the dirt just pump the dirt out with new grease always. very simple bearing. if any ideas on places to get bearings?

Hi Wade,

How wide is this disc?

Seems to me that Kewannie (sp?) discs were red with yellow lettering. Probably used either a 18 or 20" blade, if it is the disc I'm thinking of.

True Pillow Block bearings (As I remember, were pressure-oilsoaked hardwood against the rotating shaft) went out a long, long time ago. I remember them on old rotary hoes when I was your age and we had to change out the blocks every few years.

Are you sure the disc just doesn't have greasable boxed bearings?

I really don't know for sure, but I'm as old as your grandpa and I am tryin' to help ya,

Allan

I have the same problem with an Allis Chalmers mounted disc. There are no grease fitting in the bearings. All the shafts rotate and they seem tight but there appears no way to grease them. My disk is around "58 vintage so I think it would be beyond the oil-soaked hardwood era. Any ideas?

Without grease fittings, you either have some of the last wooden bearings, or the first sealed bearings..... ;)

Mornin',

Sometimes, I wish I had paid more attention back then!

I can't imagine a '58 model disc with Pillow Blocks, although I think they still did use 'em in some equipment at different wear points.

Can you snap a picture of the bearing boss? Might be able to get a better handle on it that way. Does the bearing boss split along the axis of the axle or perpendicular to it?

You might even have some of the first sealed bearings, who knows?
