Maimed Bearing Sleeve

[GMTH]

Hey!

We got our kit yesterday and started assembly! When I got around to sleeving the bearings, I noticed this one sleeve that seems a little mussed up. A photograph is attached. Is this okay? or should we try to acquire a new sleeve from SeemeCNC?

it should be fine as they do not roll on the flat, they roll on the angle cut in the channel of the extrusion.. if it does not work, just submit a ticket for us, and we will get back to you asap.

Hi, great article on bearing sleeves here
http://www.mechanicaldesignforum.com/co ... lculations, I don't know if you can see it.
Anyway, it helped me decide upon buying this https://www.mrosupply.com/bearings/auto ... g-company/.
Any idea where else I could find it?
