Description

Bearing

**new** the bearing surfaces are now finished using a new process: EP, Electrolytic Processing. This results in an even higher polish and lower rotational friction losses.

Everything else is the same as described below

Design:

-True Inverted construction. Ceramic ball bearing sits at the same plane as the drive belt, giving perfect alignment and bearing stability.

-Optimal lubrication. Oil feeder channels constantly push oil into the top section of the bearing for minimum rotational friction losses.

Hollow spindle allows adding lubricant from the top

Materials:

-nylon bearing plate at the top of the bearing case

-ceramic ball

-non-magnetic spindle

-non-magnetic phosphor bronze bearing case, nickel plating

the materials were chosen for their mechanical and tonal characteristics. This particular Japan-made phosphor bronze is very expensive and is used by a famous saxophone manufacturer, whose instruments are made from it in their entirety and are known for their deep rich tones. Remember that a turntable is a mechanical device and each material used contributes to it tonal balance – especially so the bearing.

Bearing fits 37mm thick platter, is 20mm in diameter and with a hollow spindle that extends 20mm from top of bearing.

Includes: spindle, bearing casing, ceramic ball, nylon thrust pad, 2 mounting bolt 25mm and 50mm so can be mounted in up to 40mm thick base
