Review on πŸ”§ Sunex 2622: High-Quality 1/2-Inch Drive 22-Mm Extra Thin Wall Deep Impact Socket for Precision Jobs by Eddie Sanchez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This is not a "thin wall " coupling and is not intended to replace a Fisher Paykel bearing.

Ordered to replace bearing and shaft in Fisher Paykel Smart Load Dryer. According to many YouTube DIY videos, you need a thin wall socket to access the nut on the bearing shaft. Many videos describe how to "grind" the bushing to fit the hole holding the bearing assembly. On Revain's website, this is the recommended accessory for bearing and shaft assembly. This is a standard size 22m or 7/8 head. It will not work. Went to Home Depot looking for a "thin wall" container and found it was identical in size to a standard head. The only way it will fit the hole is to reduce the outside diameter with a metal grinder. I don't have a metal grinder so I couldn't replace the shaft. You don't just need it to replace the bearing. Replaced bearings and "squeaking" was gone. Wasted a lot of time paying for a shaft I can't use.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
