Blade Guide Bearings

This replacement kit includes four 6000-2RS sealed guide bearings, providing one bearing per guide block and two full sets of replacements for yoursawmill. These small bearings are installed behind the blade in each guide assembly and play an important role in controlling blade movement during cutting.

As the blade pushes through the log, it naturally moves slightly backward and makes contact with the guide bearing. The bearing supports that movement and helps keep the blade positioned correctly while maintaining forward cutting pressure, which contributes to accurate, consistent boards across the full length of the cut.

Built as sealed, maintenance-free units, these bearings are designed for regular interaction with the blade and are considered a higher-wear service item. Keeping a spare set on hand makes routine maintenance simple and helps keep your sawmill ready for continued use without unnecessary downtime.
