Bushman TekBits BM9026-FBRK

Fits a Bushman TekBits Flint and Steel Striker
equipped with a "BTB Ball Bearing Mount ".
Converts a compatible Striker to a Bow Drill Ball Bearing Block.

Ball bearings have almost no friction compared to the standard divits as provided on some strikers and knives.
Ball bearings don't generate heat in your hand,
as standard divits do.

The bow drill spindle is tapered to fit and contact
only the bearing inner surface.
Pressure or hard rubbing on the bearing seal could damage it.

Bearing can be installed into the Striker (without retainer hardware) and held in place with small dabs of RTV adhesive,
wood slivers or similar.
The bearing flange removes the load from the adhesive
while bow drilling.
For more positive and field removable bearing retention,
the included hardware can be installed.
Retainer hardware will prevent accidental bearing loss
even under the worse handling conditions.
Finger tighten screws, as only slight pressure is needed
to hold the bearing in place.
Over tightening could damage the included nylon spacers.

For an additional method of bow drill
spindle bearing block retention, see "BM9026-BDCK".

Note: Striker not included, shown for visual reference only.
Strikers are hand finished, so will not all look
exactly the same as illustrated.
