my centrifugal went to **** about a month ago.so i took it off and got it apart and found that there are a few bearings fried! for some reason i cant seem to get the turbine off?ne ways i guess what im asking is"has nebody tookin a centrifugal apart and rebuilt it thereselfs,and if they have,where can i get the bearings for one?i know that theres got to be somebody like grainger or something that will have bearings that work? i just dont beleive that vortech is the only one who can fix it! any help would be greatly appre.

 

i would suggest sending it to Vortech.....You dont want to mess with that thing....anything goes wrong its going in the motor!

 

Last time the bearings went on my V2SQ, I had it repaired by Vortech for $600. They claim to have proprietary bearings which they won't sell to the public. I have read of guys replacing bearings themselves, but with unknown long term success. If you try it yourself, remember they spin at more than 50k rpms with heat and most bearings aren't suitable for those extremes. Maybe someone has more information.
