High Performance, SKF Heavy Duty Japanese Bearing - 8x16x5 Metal Sheild

Includes 1x 8x16x5 bearing. Suits Arrma and Hobao diffs, spools and wheel bearings.

The latest upgraded high power RC's are pushing their drive train components way beyond their original design specs. Our own world record setting 219mph car has pushed us to develop the very best upgrade parts.

Whilst our 219mph run was made 100% on the ceramic bearing also available on this website without a single issue, we have still experienced bearing failures on other builds. Drive speeds, difference torque loads and different shaft frequencies can cause problems with bearings.

After a lot of research and testing we have found these high quality Japanese bearings to perform the best and last the longest. We have now made dozens of extreme speed runs up to 213mph using these new bearings and love them!

Forget all the nonsense with free spinning ceramic bearings to show how long it spins for. This is not an engineering test of bearing performance and tells you nothing about how the bearing performs under high loads and high speeds. These top quality bearing will deliver where it counts - under the most demanding loads and the highest speeds.

Modifying your RC from stock condition can result in unexpected results. Operation of modified models must take this into account. Always follow the original manufacturers instructions. Whilst we build our parts to the highest standards we are able, like all rc parts, our parts cannot be guaranteed for performance, strength and durability in every situation or configuration. Do not use your RC in public areas. Do not use your RC where unexpected results could cause injury or damage to property. High Speed RC’s require GREAT CARE and a responsible attitude to use safely.
