TOOLS FOR BEARINGS
A Step-by-Step Guide to Aerospace Bearing Tooling process
Step 1: Cutting the Bearing
Precision cutting is crucial for aerospace applications. Aero Staking offers a range of cutting tools designed for accuracy and efficiency:
- Drill Press Bearing Cutting Tool: Designed to cut off swaged worn bearing lips before removal.
- Portable HOB Cutting Tool: Ideal for hard-to-reach places, providing flexibility in bearing removal.

Step 2: Removing the Bearing
Removing the old bearing efficiently and without damage is essential:
- ASIR Drill Press Tool: Utilizes arbor press, drill press, or knee-type mill for proper bearing removal.
- Portable Installer/Remover Tool: Easily removes tight-pressed bearings using mechanical force distribution.
Step 3: Installing the New Bearing
Proper installation ensures longevity and performance:
- ASIR Drill Press Tool: Ensures the bearing is inserted perfectly square, preventing tilting or misalignment.
- Portable Installer/Remover Tool: Also assists in even and accurate installation in tight-fit holes.

Step 4: Staking or Swaging the Bearing
Securing the bearing is crucial to maintaining its position and function:
- Tri-Roller Swaging Tools: Portable and designed for precise, uniform swaging.
- Anvil Staking Tool (ASA): A simple and cost-effective method for light-duty applications.
- Ball Impression Staking Tool (ASB): Provides high accuracy and repeatability for demanding applications.
- Segment Impression Staking Tool (ASG): Ideal for high-volume production, offering efficiency and consistency.
