Y axis Bearings

I am having issue with the Y bearings being really scratchy and jittery, Prior to assembly with the U bolt I actually tested the bar and the bearing and found the movement to be really scratchy/ jittery even before assembly.

Once assembled the bars are still not moving smoothly within any of the bearings . I am convinced that this will servery impact print quality once assembled. Prusa - Please could you send me replacement bearings?

Re: Y axis Bearings

I too thought the same when I bought my Mk3 last October, but I oiled the bearings with Singer Sewing machine Oil and they have been perfect since, occasionally getting a drop onto the shaft then running the bearing over the oil.
They glide smoothly nowadays.

Normal people believe that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Engineers believe that if it ain’t broke, it doesn’t have enough features yet.
