Replacement Axles and Bearing Sets for our Amish-made Wooden Water Wheels
These are the same bearings, plates and axles that are used in our Amish-made 15", 30", 36" and 48" wooden waterwheels. They are available with bearings sets only, axles only or bearing sets and axles sold together.
Use the chart below to confirm your waterwheel size and to see what axle will be necessary for that waterwheel. You can also see what bearings are available (we do not have nylon bearings to fit 1" axles).
