Precision Rotation with Tamiya 1150 Sealed Ball Bearings

Model makers seeking improved drivetrain response can fit the Tamiya 42377 - 1150 Sealed Ball Bearings Set (2 Pieces) as a clean upgrade to conventional plastic or open bearings, yielding smoother shafts and wheels.

Feature Highlights of the 1150 Sealed Bearings

Sealed Design: Rubber blue seals protect the bearing race from grit and moisture for steadier operation.
Easy Maintenance: Seals enable routine cleaning and light servicing so bearings stay reliable with minimal effort.
Efficient Lubrication: A small amount of thin oil keeps resistance low and prolongs service life.
Wide Compatibility: Suited to numerous Tamiya kits that take 1150 bearings, providing a straightforward upgrade option.

How should I clean these bearings after wet conditions?

Rinse off gross dirt, dry thoroughly, then apply a light bearing oil at the seal edge to restore smoothness and prevent corrosion.

Do sealed bearings need replacing more or less often?

Sealed bearings typically last longer in dirty environments because the seals reduce ingress, though replacement depends on use and wear signs.

Will upgrading to these make a noticeable difference?

Yes. Swapping from plastic or open bearings to sealed metal bearings often yields smoother spin, better efficiency and a tidier drivetrain feel.
