Does this kit include the bearing?

No. The 86326LB is intentionally Less Bearing (item 1 from the TG-10 parts list is not included). If your existing bearing is worn, order it separately so the rebuild is complete.

Will this fit any Edco grinder?

It is the head assembly for the TG-10 Turbo Grinder specifically. Other Edco grinder platforms have different head architectures and use different OEM kits. Confirm your machine model before ordering.

Why use red Loctite on the 3/8-24 cap screws?

The TG-10 head sees significant rotational vibration. Red Loctite (high-strength threadlocker) on cap screw 10030 keeps the fastener from backing out under load. Edco specifies it; substituting blue or no threadlocker is the most common cause of recurring loosening.

Can I rebuild with hardware-store fasteners?

The hex lock nut, cap screw, washer set in this kit is sized and graded to Edco's flex-head specification. Hardware-store fasteners may physically thread but rarely match grade or torque-to-yield, and they are the most common cause of premature flex-head failure on the TG-10.

Is the Morflex coupling the same as a standard rubber coupling?

No. The 86017 Morflex 402 is a balanced flexible coupling matched to the TG-10's drive geometry. A generic rubber coupling will fit the bolt pattern but will not handle the load profile correctly.

FAQ

The Edco 86326LB is the genuine Head Assembly Less Bearing (Flex) for the Edco TG-10 Turbo Grinder. When the flex head on your TG-10 is worn, cracked, or vibrating, the 86326LB is the OEM rebuild bundle that brings the grinder back to spec without piecing together every individual hardware part from a parts diagram.

Built for

Concrete polishing contractors running the Edco TG-10 Turbo Grinder daily
Floor coating prep crews removing thinset, mastic, and old coatings

Restoration and concrete repair crews maintaining grinder uptime

What is in the kit

The 86326LB head assembly bundles items 2 through 10 from the Edco TG-10 parts list (the bearing itself, item 1, is not included). Inside the kit:

86308: Flange with shaft, flex head
86017: Coupling, Morflex 402 center
86309: Mounting disc, flexible head
86343: Bushing, rubber (1-1/4 by 3/4 by 3/8) - 4 quantity
10030: Cap screw 3/8-24 by 2 (use red Loctite) - 2 quantity

10811: Lock washer 3/8 zinc - 2 quantity
10025: Flat washer 3/8 SAE zinc - 4 quantity
10004: Hex lock nut 3/8-24 zinc - 2 quantity

Why bundle the head assembly

Concrete contractors on grinder forums consistently note that piecing together flex-head rebuild parts one at a time costs more in downtime than ordering the assembly. The 86326LB ships everything you need (except the bearing itself) in one part number, with the right Morflex coupling and the matching cap-screw set already specified by Edco. Skipping the kit and substituting hardware-store fasteners is the common cause of premature flex-head failure.
