Hi - I just picked up a used table but the previous owner didn't have a manual and there is absolutely no manufacturer markings on the table. I need some replacement rod bearings but have no idea what type of bearings the ones on the table are.
The table itself looks like a Barrington / MD Sports but it is slightly different and according to MD they said it's not one of theirs. (Not sure about that though..) The table is 56 x 29-1/2, playing surface about 26-3/4 x 46-3/4. Sidewall thickness is 1-5/16".
The rod bushings are marked with US Pat. 5,330,273 on the inside, are 2" OD, and appear to be in a 1-3/8" dia hole. They are about 6 pieces when fully disassembled - 2 outer chrome plated plastic pieces, a gasket of some sort, an inner and outer bearing holder, and a flat chrome plastic washer to hold it all in. All fastened from the outside by 3 screws. They're snap together (I think) but I don't want to take them out without having replacement ones handy.
My web search using pretty much everything including the patent info has turned up empty. Anyone have any clue what the table is, or what the bearings are? And where I can get replacement bushings that fit that size? (They don't have to be the same, just something that fits.) Pix are below.
Thanks, all!
