Michell Main Bearing Ball Replacement
Replacement main bearing pivot ball for Michell turntables. One ball, seated at the pivot point of the main bearing. Compatible with Gyro, Orbe, and other select Michell models built after 1985.
Fitment: Turntables Built After 1985
This is a high-tolerance 7/32in ball, the size Michell has used on ever table since 1985. If your turntable predates 1985, measure your existing ball before ordering, or move to a replacement inverted bearing assembly instead.
Important: The Inverted Bearing Assembly Requires a Delrin Platter
If you go the inverted bearing route, read this first. The inverted bearing assembly requires a Delrin platter. An aluminum platter is not compatible with the inverted bearing system, so an aluminum-platter owner is buying two parts, not one. Contact us before you order and we will confirm what your turntable actually needs.
The Listening Room Difference
As a third-generation Michell dealer, The Listening Room maintains extensive parts inventory to keep your turntable performing at its best. If you need a Michell part we don't have listed, reach out to us and we can source it for you.
