Hi All,
I believe high temperature, vacuum/clean room use, all-stainless bearings may be found off-the-shelf, for example this (SE6...ZZMG models):

Hi Jay

There are many publications and presentations available online that
discuss the rotating graphite wheels. These are mostly from the period
when the large Meson Factories (LAMPF, TRIUMF, SIN) were being planned
and built in the 60's - 70's.
