Main crank bearings for 395-5

[Gord404]

Main bearings for crank, is there a good quality replacement you can pick up from a bearing place...half the time the dealer doesn't have them, I think there maybe SKF makes them, saw some on ebay but need the part number and are they good? Husqvarna has them but they are a little pricey and since that bearing fits a few models might be worth looking into...thx

6203 C3 clearance standard bearings are what you're looking for. In the larger Husky saws I go with Nachi or SNR. A ZZ rated bearing will do fine as those rated for electric motors up to 14k RPM on grease.

You can buy shielded or unshielded and if you get the shielded you can pop the shields out with a small screwdriver. You can also leave the shield in on the side facing away from the crank if you like.

so 6203 c3 in Nachi would be the best for a 394 or 395

that the ones?....Got a bearing dealer close by, thanks.

 

[Jacob J.]

Those would work fine. Are you replacing the seals as well?

 

[Gord404]

Yup, always do.

this is what they have locally, which of tis lot that are in stock would be best....shipping from the other place was silly

FAG and NTN are both suppliers to Stihl and Husqvarna, so I would say their products should be fine.

Thank you once again

SKF as well is OEM for Husqvarna.

Got a crossover , skf hope they will do, they are shielded but can fix that, hope there C3 but he said they were a direct crossover to 6303-c3 but are just sheilded - 6203-2rsj - just want to make sure there c3 rated

 

[Jacob J.]

RS usually means a Rubber-Shielded bearing which isn't a big deal, you can pop the rubber shields out. Most RSJ bearings are C-3 clearance so you should be ok there.
