Precision rotation using Tamiya 42378 - 1060 sealed bearings

The Tamiya 42378 - 1060 sealed ball bearings are intended to upgrade the rotational smoothness of RC parts, offering a dependable alternative to basic plastic or unsealed metal bearings.

Protected by blue rubber seals for cleaner operation

Blue rubber seals prevent ingress of dirt while still allowing straightforward cleaning. This protection helps preserve bearing life and keeps rotation smooth under normal hobby conditions.

Light internal oil for steady running

Inside each bearing a low-viscosity lubricant reduces friction and noise. Regular checks after hard impacts and occasional light oiling will keep the bearings working reliably.

Suitable for F104 rear shaft mounts and similar precision uses

While particularly useful around the rear shaft of F104 chassis motor mounts, these bearings are also appropriate wherever a sealed, precision bearing of the same size is required.

Yes, where the housing and shaft allow for a bearing of the correct dimensions, these sealed ball bearings provide lower friction and more precise rotation than plastic bushings.
Look for roughness, wobble, noise or visible seal damage. If rotation is not smooth after cleaning and oiling, replacement is recommended.
The blue seals offer basic protection, but prolonged water exposure will still compromise bearing life. For frequent wet use consider extra waterproofing measures.
