We have four SpeedVac concentrators in almost continuous use in our lab. Every so often one of the rotors cease. Replacement units are not inexpensive. New replacement bearings are cheap, but the problem is disassembling the rotor unit to get the old ceased bearings off the shaft. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions about how the ceased rotors can be (easily) disassembled?
