Reliable Sealed Bearings for RC Drivetrains

The Tamiya 42380 sealed ball bearings offer improved rotation smoothness and reduced friction in various moving parts. They are a good choice for modelers replacing simpler bearing types with a sealed option.

Seal Design and Friction Reduction

Blue rubber seals help keep contaminants away from the race while allowing straightforward access for maintenance compared with metal-sealed versions. The internal low-viscosity lubricant helps minimise wear and keeps motion free.

Where They Fit

These bearings are often used at the motor mount on TB-05 chassis setups but can be integrated into other areas where the size is compatible. Their universal design supports a range of fitting locations across RC platforms.

Maintaining Peak Condition

Regular inspection after intensive runs or knocks will help preserve performance. Apply light bearing oil occasionally and check for smooth movement to extend service life.

Spin the bearing by hand and feel for roughness or binding. Inspect seals for cuts and look for play in the fit; replace any bearing that feels rough or loose.
They suit both electric and nitro applications where the bearing size matches the mounting points. Verify dimensions and load requirements for each installation.
A light, low-viscosity bearing oil is recommended to maintain smooth operation without attracting debris. Apply sparingly and recheck performance regularly.
