Improved rolling performance with 850 sealed bearings

The Tamiya 42368 850 sealed ball bearings are designed to reduce friction and provide steadier rotation in drivetrain and gear locations. They are a practical upgrade for model builders aiming for improved mechanical smoothness.

Where to use these bearings

They are commonly fitted to centre shafts on TRF420 and TA07MS cars and to various M-chassis gear spots. Replacing standard plastic or unshielded metal bearings with these rubber-sealed units typically improves alignment and rolling consistency.

Maintenance tips for lasting performance

The rubber seals can be opened to clean and relube the bearings, which simplifies service compared with permanently shielded types. Applying a small amount of low-friction oil after cleaning keeps the bearings turning freely.

No special product is required; a light low-friction bearing oil is ideal after cleaning to preserve free movement without bogging the bearing down.
In many cases yes. Moving from plastic bushes or worn bearings to serviceable rubber-sealed 850 bearings reduces friction and improves drivetrain efficiency if installed correctly.
Spin the bearing by hand and feel for rough spots or play; if cleaning and oiling do not restore smooth rotation, replacement is recommended.
