ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes an apparatus and method for in situ repair of damaged bearing surfaces of shafts or journals. The apparatus consists of a bracket assembly supporting a forming material axially aligned with and sized to the damaged shaft or journal. The former stock is self-sizing to the diameter of the damaged shaft or journal encountered. After cure of the repair material used with the invention, a new surface is created, which is then ready to accept a replacement bearing. The apparatus is reusable for subsequent repair needs.
