"Vandercook Manuals for most Vandercook presses"
$28.00
X25000
Manuals for most Vandercook presses are available from us. Please specify the model you have, i.e., SP-15, #4, Universal I, etc., in the Special Instructions section on the shopping cart page, and include your press serial number. Some manuals are less in price because of the amount of material contained in the manual. A Vandercook manual does not tell you how to print--they assumed anyone buying a press had the necessary skills to operate it but needed the basic maintenance information plus references to part numbers. When requesting parts from NA Graphics, and those are not listed in this web site, we need to know the press model and part number that can be found in the manual. For parts not listed, we have the original Vandercook blueprints and can research what ever it is that may be required, but the manual is an essential part of owning any piece of printing equipment.

"Vandercook SP-15 Bearing Block Assembly--Bearing Block"
$49.50
X-20457
The bearing block assembly for the SP-15 rollers contains four basic parts as shown in the illustration. The black plastic knob should be attached to the stem with a drop of Loctite. One or all of these parts may need replacing based on wear or inappropriate use. Not included are the Nyliners, or the hold down spring and studs added to the rear roller block assembly in later production year models. Let not the Vandercook manual confuse you as these parts put together for the bearing block assembly are listed in some versions of the SP-15 manual as X-21200, and that is the assembly print number which shows the individual parts listed here. A SP-15 requires 4 bearing blocks, and in addition the X-13123 Nyliners are required (4 each) for the roller core ends and these fit into the bearing blocks.

The first part is the bearing block, X-20457, and the block includes the screw shown. The stem and knob are listed separately with their respective part numbers.

"Nyliner for SP-15"
$2.55
X-13123
Flanged Nyliners are used in the bearing blocks for the SP-15 ink rollers. These are designed to take the wear from a steel core of the roller rotating in the steel shaft hole in the bearing block. These are supposed to be replaced as the Nyliners wear, and especially if the flange breaks off. Without Nyliners, the roller's cores will destroy the bearing blocks through wear and there is no way to accurately control ink roller setting. Replace all 4 at the same time. Nyliners should have a drop of oil added occasionally. Other Nyliners for other Vandercook models are in stock but are not listed on this website at present--use the Vandercook part number and we can supply what you need. Don't know the part number? Well, we can sell you a manual so you can become an informed press owner/user, or give us a call and we can help you.
