## Assembly Instructions

The following shows the General Assembly Instructions for the Inline Clamping Bearing Block.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Half of all blocks blocks should be assembled without the 1/4" ID radial bearings as these would need to be removed and reinstalled in certain steps of assembly.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate ([Vibra-TITE](https://wcproducts.com/products/threadlocker)) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.
{% endhint %}

## Step 1
