Hersteller code

Greeting everyone,

Does anyone know the Hersteller with the three-letter code “SLF?”

Thank you in advance,

Steve Sheflin

Re: Hersteller code

Hello Snautzer,

Thank you for your input.

I doubt, however, that Schweres Leuchtfeuer is the correct Hersteller. I should have been more concise and mentioned that these code letters relate to a late-war producer of Jumo 213 E motors.

Thank you again for helping,

Steve Sheflin

Re: Hersteller code

Good morning!

My thought is:

Spindel- und Lagertechnik Fraureuth

They built different types of bearings.

Herzliche Grüsse aus Oberschwaben,

Wolfgang

Re: Hersteller code

Steve to find that one, you need this, i have part 1 1940 (1944 version for sale here http://www.podzemni-antikvariat.cz/d...geordnet-xerox ) I looked into the Jumo 213 manuals but no producers codes there. I doubt that LSF stands for Spindel- und Lagertechnik Fraureuth.

Re: Hersteller code

Dear all,

SLF is at least not mentioned in the book of German manufacturer codes by M. Heidler.

Regards,

Heuser

Re: Hersteller code

Steve,
The highest code in my copy of the Liste der Fertigungskennzeichen is 'ozz'.
Where did you get 'slf' as the manufacturer's code?

Re: Hersteller code

My book is a copy of the original dated Oct 1944. This was reprinted by Pawlas in 1977.

Re: Hersteller code

Hello, Richard et al,
My go-to source for Hersteller codes in the VISIER Edition (German secret armament codes until 1945), Michael Heidler, 2008.
I found the Hersteller code on a Jumo 213 Typenschild. I tried to attach a photo of it here but failed miserably. Following is a transcription of it:
Gerät-Nr. 9 213 A-1
Werk-Nr. 1111523905 G1
Hersteller SLf
Note that the SL is in upper case and the f is in lower case.
Respectfully,
Steve Sheflin
