Long life steel bearings for RC drivetrains

The Factory Pro B-SBU0168 1/4 x 3/8 steel ball bearings are manufactured to provide steady rotational performance for wheels and gearboxes. These steel bearings aim to lower friction points and improve mechanical consistency in everyday and competitive RC use. The set is convenient for replacing tired bearings during maintenance sessions.

What these bearings improve

Upgrading to quality steel ball bearings can smooth out wheel rotation and reduce drivetrain drag, which helps with throttle control and repeatable runs. Factory Pro bearings focus on dependable operation across hobby tasks.

Models and practical uses

These 1/4 x 3/8 bearings are compatible with many standard RC assemblies including cars and light trucks when the dimensions match. Always verify measurements on your model to ensure a correct swap.

How should I clean these bearings?

Remove old lubricant, use a dedicated bearing cleaner or solvent, dry thoroughly, and re-lubricate with a suitable bearing oil or light grease for the intended running conditions.

Will these fit vintage RC models?

They can fit older models if the bearing bore and outer diameter match 1/4 x 3/8. Measure your existing bearings before ordering to avoid mismatches.

Can they handle high torque setups?

Steel ball bearings are robust for many torque applications, but overall durability will depend on load, maintenance and how well they are seated in the hub or gearbox.

Are replacement bearings available individually?

Check with parts suppliers for single bearing options; many sellers list 1/4 x 3/8 bearings if you only need one or two replacements.

Do I need special tools to fit them?

A basic bearing press or a correctly sized socket and a soft mallet will help seat the outer race without damaging the bearing; avoid pressing on the inner race directly.
