Axle bearing

[clive stokes]

Just had some new 1" axle bearings delivered, come to assemble them and the have a small pip on the clamping face
Question
Do I file the pip off
Do I file an indent into the clamp
Do I tighten the clamp up and grip the pip
Someone advice please

Oh Go on Go on, you choose Most of my components have pips on them, oh hang on, it's the chicken s**t from the welder.
How big is the pip? and where did you get the bearings from??

Hi Clive,
I had the same problem, so I filed them off
Can't remember a pip on the bearing carriers back in the 70's ???? .....................

It just pulls out with a pair of pliers - it's only a pin to plug the hole used to fill it with grease.
