Review on PGN 608 2RS Sealed Bearing Lubricated Power Transmission Products by Brent Henderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Poor quality control and not sealed as advertised

I understand that they are not intended for heavy duty applications, but I still expected a certain level of honesty and accuracy when purchasing. To make this quick and easy they are NOT sealed and 30-40% of the ones I have are not even oiled. I wouldn't normally check all of this, but I noticed right away that the first couple of bearings I pulled out weren't spinning. I started checking them and 4 of the first 10 weren't even lubed and none of them were sealed. In the top corner of one of my photos I've included an example of what a sealed bearing looks like. Bottom line, there are better options.

Pros
  • Bearing
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
