I can't help thinking that the phrase "The flanged bearing design is effectively old technology " is simply code for :That is the way we used to do it.  We don't do it that way now.  Hardly "old technology". Ian Thomson Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

I agree. It is not always an issue of old technology! Sometimes it might be: Do we make as much on bearing "F" as we can on bearing "non-F". We hobbyists are almost certainly going to lose that argument. Dick Little TA1326
