    Roller/Conveyer Bearings

    Hi,

    I was hoping to find an inexpensive source for the conveyer or roller bearings that are often seen in use for an out-feed tables and large lazy susans. I thought they were called conveyer bearings, but am not seeing them listed by that name on the industrial supply sites (Grainger, for example). Figured industrial suppliers might be a little cheaper as they would specialize in this sort of item. Please let me know if any of you have a good source (surplus is ok too).

    Thanks!

      Thanks Tom. I'm finding all kinds now. Compared to the industrial suppliers, Rockler's not as far off the mark (overpriced) as I had anticipated. Especially if they'll take the 20% off coupon on the bulk pack of bearings.

          Thanks Cabinetman. Some of those rollers are really a novel solution. Selby looks like a great resource. I'll keep them in mind in the future.
