Smooth Rolling for Your MB-01 Chassis

The Tamiya 22026 Full Ball Bearing Set is an effective upgrade to replace worn or basic bushings on the MB-01. These ball bearings help the vehicle run with less internal resistance and steadier motion.

Included Components

  • 12 pieces of 1050 (10mm x 5mm) ball bearings
  • 2 pieces of 1280 (12mm x 8mm) ball bearings
  • 4 pieces of 850 (8mm x 5mm) ball bearings

Why Use Ball Bearings

Ball bearings reduce drag compared with plastic or simple metal bushes, which lowers wear on rotating parts and keeps the drivetrain operating efficiently for longer periods.

Care and Fitment Notes

Check bearings are free from debris before pressing into the MB-01. Use a light lubricant compatible with bearings and avoid contaminating the races during installation.

Will these bearings fit older MB-01 parts?

They are sized for the MB-01 layout and will generally fit older parts that accept the same bearing dimensions. Confirm dimensions before fitting to non standard components.

Is it worth installing them on a budget build?

Even on budget builds, ball bearings cut friction and can reduce wear, making them a sensible upgrade for longevity and smoother operation.

How should I store spare bearings?

Keep bearings in a dry, dust free container and away from corrosive chemicals. A small packet of silica gel helps prevent moisture damage during storage.

Can I use grease instead of oil?

Grease offers better protection against dirt at the cost of slightly higher rolling resistance. Light oil reduces drag but may require more frequent servicing in dirty conditions.
