Upgrade to Ceramic with Factory Pro FP-B-CB1005(12)

The Factory Pro FP-B-CB1005(12) pack supplies twelve 5x10x4mm ceramic ball bearings, convenient for regular maintenance or targeted performance upgrades. The set covers common bearing locations across many RC chassis.

Performance Advantages

Ceramic bearings are often chosen for their lower rolling resistance and reduced wear compared with standard steel counterparts. This can help maintain smoother operation over a longer period between services.

Which Models Use 5x10x4mm?

Many RC cars and light trucks specify 5x10x4mm bearings for wheels, idlers or gearboxes. Always cross-check your model's parts list to confirm compatibility before fitting.

Maintenance and Best Practice

Install bearings into clean bores and check for free spin after seating. Regular inspections, light lubrication and keeping contaminants out will extend bearing life.

Will these bearings fit standard wheel hubs?

If your hub specifies a 5x10x4mm bearing, these will fit. Double check internal bore dimensions and whether a press or slip fit is required.

How often should I inspect them?

Inspect bearings after heavy use or if you notice increased noise or roughness; routine checks every few sessions help catch wear early.

Can I use the same lube as on steel bearings?

Use a light oil or a lubricant recommended for precision bearings; some heavy greases can reduce the benefit of ceramic elements by adding drag.

Are ceramic bearings brittle compared with steel?

Ceramic balls are harder but can be more chip-prone under severe impact. Handle and install them carefully to avoid shock to the rolling elements.
