Axle bearing 140869 Carraro, aftermarket

Axle bearing 140869 is an aftermarket part for the backhoe loaders with Carraro axles.

A bearing's load capacity and dimensional accuracy are defined by its standard designation (for example the cone and cup numbers of taper roller bearings), which helps confirm that it suits its position in the axle. Bearings are stored dry, clean and lying flat. A bearing with rust marks, dents or cage damage is never fitted.

Specifications

Compatibility

According to the product card, Carraro 140869 is a bearing; cross numbers: 586-6843, 198-7823, 706730A1. Fit is confirmed by the axle or transmission type. Other parts are in Carraro.

Fitting

When the old bearing is removed, check the housing and shaft seat for burrs, rust and wear, since a worn seat lets the new bearing spin. Renew the seals and O-rings next to the bearing too. When the axle oil is drained, look at the metal particles in it: a lot of particles suggests the gears may also be worn. The bearing is chosen by comparing its number and dimensions (bore, outside diameter and width) with the old one. During the first hours of work after the change, feel the axle casing around the bearing: excessive heat indicates too much preload, and the adjustment must be redone.
