Re: VEX Pro vs. AM Bearings

Richard,

Remember that we increased the size of the hex in order to accommodate various larger hex stock. If used with the VEXpro shaft there could be as much as .001 gap between the flats of the hex shaft and flats of the bearing

The only true way to get runout indication is clamping the output and rotating the input.

We will perform this test on samples this Monday.
