I rec'd the following from my son who works at SKF.Marv # 17707 marv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Steven.M.Stein@xxxxxxx To: marv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, April 04, 2003 9:00 AM Subject: Re: Fw: [DMCForum] Wheel bearing cross number SKF is a SWEDISH company, not German. They have factories in over 80 countries. The BA2B 633313 C is an angular contact ball bearing with dimensions of 30mm id x 60.060 mm od x 37 mm wide. The VKBA is a double row angular contact ball bearing (there are two rows of balls). I do not have dimensions for the VKBA 559. I do know that it is made in Sweden. If the box says made in Brazil then that bearing was made in Brazil (This one could also be made in Germany). The reason for this is that one factory is designated for a specific product and if that factory shuts down for retooling then the product is moved to another factory in another country. This keeps the production of the product always available. ss To: Steven.M.Stein@xxxxxxx cc: Subject: Fw: [DMCForum] Wheel bearing cross number ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx> To: <DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 2:39 PM Subject: AW: [DMCForum] Wheel bearing cross number > > You can also buy SKF VKBA 559.
