Tinning the shell of a Babbitt bearing is not always a must, but when it is called for you will have to do just that. I share my process on tinning a cast iron shell that uses a thin thickness of Babbitt as the bearing. Just like the 5-inch bearing we re-poured last week this 6-inch bearing is for a marine shaft. One other difference between sizes is this run in an oil bath versus the other being a grease lubrication.

Yes, please keep sharing. Vary interested is seeing the babbit pour.
As a patriot and a Marine that served when 9/11 happened and deployed after, I can't thank you enough for your patriotism in these troubled times! Your work alone is top notch, but your patriotism is above and beyond! We need more men like you in order to keep this Republic alive. Honorary Semper Fidelis, Brother. USMC 1999-2007 Edit: I should be dead, 21 years ago, but God gave me a second chance to reach out and let others know that he's with us.
God Bless You and Thank You for Your Service.
I became a Marine in 1963 and hit Vietnam in 1965. Talking about should be dead, I was in two mortar attacks, one fire fight and a host of being shot at. Watching Keith work with the skill and patriotism he exudes is a bright spot in my day. Semper Fidelis to all Marines.
Keith please continue, I am working on learning how to pour babbitt in some of my antique tractor engines. It is helping.
Thanks for doing this. This knowledge needs to be preserved.
Definitely continue this video real interested in the 6" shaft straightening to just not stuff we see every day
Thanks for the videos Keith. Definitely continue with the babbit pour, your a wealth of information, these are really great and informative!
The last time I pored babbitt was about 1959. My grandfather needed it done, but he was in poor health, so he told me what to do and watched me do the work .
I'd love to hear your history. My parents were born in 1950 and 1951 and my grandparents are no longer with us, and I regret not asking them more before then. If you want to share, feel free to do so here. I'm sure many would want to know what you've done and been through.
Also, my grandparents were farmers in Mobridge and Ridgeview South Dakota, taking over their parents farm, in the 1920's. My Mom even grew up in an underground house in the '50's.
@@scottpageusmc If you come through the Oklahoma pan handle plan to drop by the Cimarron Heritage Center. We have an original settlers underground house. Building stuffed with buggies, wagons, old cars & trucks, dust bowl exhibit and much more. Other than your time it is free.
@@danharold3087, oh wow, that's awesome! I'll definitely check that out on my next cross country trip. I've been through the Oklahoma panhandle serval times over the years, so one more cross country trip won't hurt. Thanks for that info!
@3:20 - I used to work for a national battery company where part of the job was replacing cells in huge forklift batteries. We used large ingots like this along with a torch to "solder" the cells back in place. We always vented the cells before firing up the torch though. Each joint only takes a second if you're good.
Most definitely would like to see the babbitt pour
interesting as usual -thx Keith
Please do a video of the Babbitt pour.
Great video, show pouring Babbitt. I seen Keith Rucker do his share. But I always enjoy it. Look forward to your next video.
the Harris Stay Clean flux does a very good job for tinning ferrous metals, I used it for solder many parts that have been saved that way As you say, cleaniness is of a prime importance when soldering about any materials. very good teacher excellent video
I live in Germany, I work in IT, I own a mini lathe and I'm about to build a shapeoko CNC. My interest in machining came from watching people like you, abom, mr crispin, clickspring etc. Among the ones I listed, I love watching your videos the most, even tho I never met you, maybe never will, you enthrall me the most, you have a special Aura which I really like. Keep on rocking Mr. Fenner.
Keep up the great content Keith
I would like to see the pour on this bearing....cheers...and thank you...
Thanks Keith, this is the first time I've ever seen tinning. This is the kind of knowledge that you tuck away and keep filed in the noggin' until a day when it pays off out of nowhere lol.
I like it Mr Fenner!
Always interested in babbitt pours.
Your talents extend far beyond a machinist. I wish you had of worked in the industry that I worked in, I would have gotten a lot more sleep.
Enjoy and bearing/babbet content. Especially the fixturing molds required. Machining the elliptical oil grooves with the special tailstock attachment.
As usual great video, thanks
Thanks Keith. Very good episode. Please do continue on and show the pour. Keep the skills alive. Just out of curiosity what is the Babbitt alloy. Is a different one required to bond with the 50/50 solder. Cheers
Ahhhh! I can smell the hot acid wafting in my face again! Nice tinning job.
I do enjoy watching a good pour, maybe have a babbit championship event sometime. Keith and Keith. What about a high temperature o-ring dam
love it Keith
Hello, my first KZheadr whom I watch and admire and I need to have text translation turned on to understand what he is saying, but thanks to the translation technique I can keep up to date with what's going on with you. I am familiar with this whitening and tinning technique. I also repair various devices, but I have never poured bearing alloy into the bearing shell (babit). I am very far from the shipyard and we do not have such solutions. But I've seen such shells before. Maybe one day I will come across this type of bearing, I have this babit, although I prefer the name bearing alloy. The most important thing is that it combines well with the tin primer. I will be happy to watch the continuation of the acetabular casting. Best regards and all the best. PS. I wonder how he will translate it.😊
Interesting stuff
I would like to see any and all work you do. I can't get enough.
Thank you for your patriotism.
Thanks for Sharing Keith Vary interesting Keep sharing
getting it Done Sir Keith...cheers from Orlando, Paul
It would be interesting to hear about the change in the name of the shop.
Very interesting series. Thank you.
Thanks for posting, very interesting. I think a tinning video + pouring video combo would be great. Take care
I crave information, thank you for your time. I seem to teach all of those around me, so, when I can learn from others it is treasured. Please continue with your videos Mr Fenner. I need to be taught these interesting things, even if I never need to implement the task. Our company purchased me a $200,000.00 Haas ST-35LY lathe, day 3, relax and understand what I taught myself in day 1-2...extreme and intense. I never fail..on day 3, making parts ( I think that I need to adjust the arc filters). Just saying, I seem to always teach everyone including myself Mr Fenner. Please continue..
Please continue the series Keith. Thanks for the video.
Keith, definitely learned something new tonight...thanks so much.....Paul
Paul, are you doing anything with appleseed these days?
Mr Peet has a good tining video
Bom trabalho amigo Keith!!!
Hi Keith and Lisa 😊, good job on the tin nine, man I can smell that flux from over here, used to use what we called spirits of salt fluid don't know if it's the same stuff kieth but the fumes made your eyes water and took your breath away. I'd be interested to see the babbit poured, and straightening that big shaft would be a good watch. Whatever you give us is always interesting, cheers mate, best wishe's to you and Lisa, Stuart UK.
I often make my own flux for tinning for Babbitt or other large soldering projects. Just Muriatic acid with Zink dissolved into it... It's called Cut acid. I only use that stuff outside with a fan blowing across the work.
The old timers called it killed spirits.
Yep, yep, metal! ⚙️
Another vote for a follow up babbit pour please.
I would really like to see the pour.
Хорошая работа.👍 Конечно, таких диаметров вкладышей заливать не пришлось. Но Ф60мм, то да. Не знаю, мы или бедные, или нищие. Но намного всё проще. Шаблон с картона, лудили паяльником, на паяльной лампе. Потом напильник и шабер. А, ну да, еще помню, если диаметр позволяет, то шабрили поршневыми кольцами Б/У. Пополам переломил и вперед.👍
Awesome there is all kinds of ways good talented workers can get it done! Cheers, Keith
Nice😊😊
Thanks for the video. As a retired MR1 we did a lot of bearings. The biggest was a main line shaft bearing for USS Detroit. Inside diameter of 48 inches, plus .002 minus 0. We got it done on a 50 year old ship at sea (anchored) during Desert Storm. It was a steel shell with grooves. The faces were hand scraped for flatness, then bored on a HBM. I haven't seen all of your videos yet, but I haven't seen you "peening" the babbit. The moulders would do this to see if the babitt would release from the shell before machining. Do you do it also?
Keith we call it a White Metal Bearing.
I can smell that flux from Colorado!
Thank you Keith!
I’d like to see that Keith.
numero uno
Hola keith que buen trabajo . Pregunta lo q padas es estaño o metal blanco. Bueno cuando puedas contestarme gracias amigo saludos
Tinning is the process name. The product is 50/50 solder, and we will be pouring babbitt as the bearing material.
Gracias keiht
лайк.
Keith have you been watching Meidastouch to get the other side of the story, Australia's would love to watch your channel but it's possible a the moment
Keith I have a set of scrapers for scraping babies bearings. Any intrest?
Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to the machine to size, and the customer will fit it.
hows the Monarch lathe coming along?
Coming along, just had two videos on spline and one update on locals
C😮ONTINUE KIETH I😅
Airgas Announces no more yearly lease on tanks now daily rental owe great
Just noticed the Trump flag. I knew I liked you.
Your machinist skills are first class and over the last several years I’ve learned a lot from you. However recent posts have been rambling and lacking in content. Your obvious political views for me are also unattractive and have no place in the type of posts you are famous for. Good luck to you Kieth but keep it on topic or retire with the respect you deserve as a machinist.
Keith, I'm writing to see if you'd be willing to do less of the attempted indoctrination; regarding the pledge of allegiance to the flag and the right wing turn your channel has taken. I've been watching you since the beginning of turn wright machine works. You have been an amazing resource for learning more about turning, welding, brazing, and the general properties of steel(straightening shafts, tempering, etc.), how things work, what tolerances are important, and strategies to be efficient in the shop. I work at a construction company and get enough right wing propaganda while I'm on the clock, if it would be possible to enjoy an educational program at home, I would sincerely appreciate it.
I like your work buddies already!
@@KeithFenner I previously had a positive response, but can't let that stay. The right wing rhetoric is why my husband has been threatened by my coworkers because we're a gay couple. This BS right wing propaganda is why they think it's OK to threaten to smash beer bottles over his head.
Been watching you for a decade and love your channel, but when you bring in political nonsense you're going to lose me.
As a veteran, it hurts when I see someone telling another person how he should be politically oriented. This is a free country and you’ve done more harm trying to force someone not to be able express themselves than someone putting a flag on their wall.
