Hello,

I plan on keeping my Clausing 8520 vertical mill for a very long time. As a proactive measure, I would like to buy and store a set of quill bearings just in case. Does anyone know who might make replacement bearing and maybe even have part numbers. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

KenS,

The list is comprehensive and the link is an excellent find. Thank you.
 
If you fellows don't mind, I am going to move this thread to the Clausing forum instead of the general help forum.
 
Thank you Ken. I have the original owners manual for mine but it is not this comprehensive. I down loaded yours to add to the manual. Again, thank you.

You are ahead of me this time Terry.
