Thanks for checking on that. I sourced some SKF BR7109 bearings locally so I am just going that route. Single side shielded, exact dimensions as the BOP bearing, and probably the bearing manufacturer I trust most.
Nothing at all against BOP, I’ve had several other transactions with them and they’ve all been great (as well as their quality). I was only able to email today with my concerns about the seal and he said to just ship them back and we’d be all set.
