Can the drill rotate to 7000 rpm? *NM* Laz - Tuesday, 12 November, 2013, at 4:29:23 pm |

"The bearings installed in the 9x7 engines are factory sealed and (according to studies) resistant to oil penetration unless completely submerged for long periods of time. How is this kit that sprays oil at the face of the bearing supposed to lubricate it internally, given that it is factory-sealed? Without replacing the bearing with one that is open-faced, all the oil sprayed at this 9x7 bearing will be shed, and be essentially inefficient. (This does sound like a nice retrofit for a vehicle with an LN Engineering open-face bearing.)
"I also am doubtful about the so-called 'blender effect'.If the bearing is submerged roughly half an inch in oil, it shouldn't whisk all of the oil off itself when it spins. If I put an LN Engineering bearing on my drill and submerge it half an inch in oil and crank it up, it won't throw all of the oil away from it if it's resting half-submerged in a reservoir of oil."
I rest my case. *NM* Laz - Tuesday, 12 November, 2013, at 7:00:03 pm |
