🔩 High-Performance PGN Shielded Bearing X0 196: Enhanced Lubrication for Optimal Performance Review

Also bought them for a Happ trackball. They fit perfectly but don't have the freewheel that a trackball needs. You can find that they don't spin very freely by simply holding them between your fingers and spinning.

These bearings were very good but I don't think they were suitable for my application. I was trying to swap out bearings on a Golden Tee trackball. The fit was perfect, but they lacked the steady "spin" of the originals. They were very smooth and felt like they had good control. However, I ended up returning them to find a closer match to the standard set.

I bought these to test and compare to the VXB bearings I have used for many years. Currently, VXBs are around $2 each, while they cost around $0.80 each. I use them for English Wheel Anvil bearings and I need something reasonably accurate and solid, which isn't the case. I wouldn't like to incorporate them into a product that I sell to my metalworking customers, so I'm returning them. I ordered a count. 50 brand VXB instead.
