Review: Running four 6s and two 3s rc's means you need a lot of bearings. Quality is comparable to bigger name brands and much better priced. Will definitely buy again
Review: Excellent price on these bearings. Easily a third of the local hardware store price and arguably better quality. Yes these are metric but they're very close to standard dimensions if your project will allow. I bought them to use as roller tips in the fingers of a steady rest on a small lathe. They will not see too awful high rpm. They ship in a little plastic case and come with a sticker, woo! They spin very smoothly and have no play between the inner and outer parts. The seals fit into place well also.

I purchased these bearings to use in a project I was working on and they are fit for use. They work, they work well, what can I say? After I had ordered these, a few later I purchase a different size for my grandson's skateboard. They worked well for him too.
