Little bearing, big responsibility!


Little bearing, big responsibility! This S693ZZ bearing only measures 3mm x 8mm x 4mm and is found in the handle of a fishing reel. If something bites the bate, it is up to this little bearing to bring it in. The featured bearing is made of stainless steel. The ball bearings are made of ceramic which produces less friction. We carry bearings for most of the major make and model fishing reels in the market. Visit our website for more information or click here http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/kit7955

Bearings Lube Big Mistake!

 

One of the most common misconceptions that cause a bearing is to fail is the amount of lubrication a bearing must have. Many believe the bearing must be fully packed with grease for it to work better, however that is a big mistake. Over lubricating a bearing will actually force the motor to work harder. The more grease, the harder the motor has to work to over come the friction of the excess bearing, therefore causing overheating and premature failure of the bearing.  The standard grease fill should be 20% to 30% full.


According to Nachi; the high precision ball bearing manufacturer, The Best Components Yield the Greatest Bearing Performance, Rings and balls made of select material have superbly controlled accuracy such as roundness, contour, surface finish, and hardness to provide quieter operation, reduced vibration levels, and long life. Rivet-type pressed steel cages for strength and durability. High-performance grease for long life and low noise.
 

The alternative to gasoline is electric, to ceramic it is POM!


The alternative to gasoline is electric, to ceramic it is POM. The POM bearing is a less expensive alternative to a full ceramic bearing. It offers the same benefits, however it made up of plastic composite races and glass fiber ball bearings. It is ideal for applications needing a non conductive bearing. The featured bearing measures 25mm x 52mm x 15mm, 6205 POM Bearing http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/PROD/Kit12491
