Tamiya 555015 Bearing Set for 1/10 Scale Models

For motorists and kit builders seeking a lighter bearing option, the Tamiya 555015 - RC 1150 plastic bearing set fits many 1/10 scale cars and supports wheels and other rotating parts reliably. The plastic material aims to combine light weight with sufficient strength for everyday hobby use.

Reduced Weight with Reliable Support

By lowering spinning mass around hubs and shafts, these bearings help improve responsiveness while still providing the support needed for steering and drivetrain components. The widely used 1150 size aids compatibility across common models.

Simple Care and Straightforward Installation

Plastic bearings generally need less frequent servicing than metal types, and their simple installation makes them easy to swap during routine maintenance or upgrades.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for metal bearings?

They can replace metal bearings in many applications but check dimensions and load expectations since plastic behaves differently under heavy loads.

What cleaning method is recommended?

Blow out dust and use a soft brush or plastic-safe cleaner, then apply a minimal amount of suitable lubricant to preserve smooth rotation.

Will these bearings cope with wet weather use?

Plastic resists corrosion better than bare metal, but after wet runs you should clean and dry bearings to prevent abrasive contamination and maintain performance.
