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.
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.
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.
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.
