SEBO Bearing Pin for the CE12 SOFTCASE

Some parts only ever turn up on one machine. Part 2910 is the bearing pin used in the SEBO CE12 SOFTCASE, catalogued at position 156 on that model's parts sheet and listed for no other machine in the range.

A pin of this kind does two jobs at once: it locates a moving component and it carries the side load that component puts on its mounting while the machine is worked. That makes it a wear item by design. Once the pin has gone oval or picked up a step where it has been running, the assembly around it develops play — a knock or a rattle that comes and goes with direction of travel, a part that sits slightly out of line, and a bearing surface that starts wearing at an angle instead of squarely. The noise is usually what sends someone looking, and the pin is usually cheaper than whatever it is quietly damaging.

Because it is small and inexpensive, it is worth renewing whenever the surrounding assembly is stripped rather than refitting one that has already been running with play in it. Other CE12 SOFTCASE parts commonly ordered at the same time include axle clamp 2849, toothed belt 2923, plastic bracket 2494ER, rubbing plate 5155GS, pile adjustment axle 75095, access door spring 5304 and sealing strip 5400-4; the machine's filter bags are 75175AM and its 12 inch brush roller is 5010AM.
