Ball bearing? And your missing a dimension, width. Also are these tape measure measurements cause ball bearings are almost always metric even on antique stuff

Have your local auto parts place dimension it out for you, that way you have a number. Go to I believe NSK's website where you can cross a number, and it will give you EVERY number for that bearing. Then type it into eBay search and hopefully find a cheap one on there. I wanted USA made bearings for the ball bearing main bearings on my F20, they were from $175-300 from auto parts store or bearing supplier. Bought a lot of as described "2 big old bearings" in which the bearing number was included, for 50 cents. Now the shipping was $12 but I'm not going to complain about that! The bearings I bought are brand new SKF, which I believe is one of the best you can get, they are USA made, (etched into the bearing), but they were probably 20 years old judging by the look of the boxes they were in (rough). Just an idea if you are trying to save money.

i think what markct is calling width, is usually called height on bearings. Also a lot are not metric, but they are in decimal form.
.4375 for 7/16 and .750 for 3/4.

When looking, My first stop is NAPA.
If they don't have it I go to a bearing house called Motion Industries. If they don't have it ,they can get it.

usabearingsandbelts.com --- These guys know their stuff and have a large inventory in stock at good prices. You can look up your bearing on their site or call them.

Nearly every bearing I have seen has a number on them somewhere, either etched of very finely stamped. They are sometimes very hard to see/read but if you find it you can cross reference it to just about any brand.

Do you have the old bearing out? It's best to get the numbers off it. Try locateballbearings.com or just put the number into google. The dimensions you gave aren't enough.
